Europeanization - New Research Agendas

Zusatztext '...this is by far the most comprehensive review of Europenisation studies in the field. This editied volume is compulsory reading for students of the EU; it is informative and clearly structured and its chapters are written by authorities in the field of Europeanisation research. It is exceptional to find an edited volume where the quality of contributions is consistently high.' - Michael Kaeding, Political Studies Review 'The editors have succeeded in producing a coherent and reader-friendly volume. Graduate students will find it particularly useful both in terms of the description of the state of the art and in terms of the identification of questions that require further attention.' - Dionyssis G. Dimitrakopoulos, West European Politics 'This fine volume opens up new dimensions of research on the processes of Europeanization. The editors set the theme broadly in order to capture as wide a range as possible of forms of domestic adaptation to European integration. The nicely balanced mix of chapters on political processes and policy developments enable the volume to make rich empirical and analytical contributions to the debate.' - Helen Wallace, Director of the Robert Schuman Centre for Advanced Studies, European University Institute, Italy 'This handbook provides an excellent overview of the Europeanization literature. Its chapters are written by authorities in the field of Europeanization research, covering an impressively broad range oftheoretical and empirical topics in an accessible fashion.' - Michelle Cini, Jean Monnet Senior Lecturer in European Community Studies, University of Bristol, UK 'Provides a valuable and thorough analysis of this controversial theme in the study of European politics. With original contributions that examine the state of the art from multiple perspectives, this book is a major undertaking that is likely to provide the benchmark for studies of Europeanization for years to come.' - John McCormick, Indiana University Purdue University Indianapolis, USA 'The handbook covers a great deal. [B]y pointing out the potential and the pitfalls of Europeanization research, the handbook provides a comprehensive contribution to the Europeanization literature.' - Barbara Brink, Journal of Common Market Studies Informationen zum Autor IAN BACHE Department of Politics, University of Sheffield, UKTANJA A.
