This popular and highly praised text provides a lively and accessible
introduction to the governance and politics of Europe.
Thematically structured to address the key institutions and issues, it is
genuinely pan-European in scope. Although no country is ignored, a
range of representative countries (the Czech Republic, France, Germany,
Italy, the Netherlands, Poland, Spain, Sweden and the UK), as well as
the European Union itself, are used as key case examples throughout
the book and each of them is the subject of an in-depth double-page
country profile.
New to the Second Edition:
s; Double page country profiles with extra coverage of key issues
Debate boxes, giving the pros and cons of contested issues
Key Point boxes to reinforce learning and aid revision
