  This book brings together a very impressive team of leading researchers in a comprehensive analysis of the exercise of political power in the European policy process. The book, which is based on very recent research findings, is divided into four parts: theoretical and historical representation and the EU as a supranational state. The book is designed as a comprehensive introduction to the European level and the role of all of the major participants - from the member states themselves to pressure groups - in the intergration process. It also illustrates the way in which public policy in the member states has become, increasingly European public policy. European Union: Power and Policy Making will be an ideal text for students of European Union politics and European policy-making. Its clear style and up-to-date coverage will also appeal to those with a professional interest in the subject, from MEPs and Commission officials to lobbyists.
