{"product_id":"governing-europe-hardback","title":"Governing Europe - Hardback","description":"Governing Europeis the first book to systematically link Michel Foucault's hypotheses on power and 'governmentality' with the study of European integration. Through a series of empirical encounters that spans the fifty-year history of European integration, it explores both the diverse political dreams that have framed means and ends of integration and the political technologies that have made 'Europe' a calculable, administrable domain\u003cbr\u003eThe book illustrates how a genealogy of European integration differs from conventional approaches. By suspending the assumption that we already know what\/where Europe is, it opens a space for analysis where we can ask: how did Europe come to be governed as this and not that? The themes covered by this book include:\u003cbr\u003e* the different constructions of Europe within discourses of modernization, democratization, insecurity and 'governance* the imprint of modernism, liberalism, ordoliberalism, neoliberalism and crime on the identity of the European Community\/European Unio* the historical relationship between European government and specific technologies of power, technologies as diverse as planning, price control, transparency and benchmarking.","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44574560714990,"sku":"9780415321983","price":227.2,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0630\/9612\/7726\/files\/9780415321983.jpg?v=1704385053","url":"https:\/\/bookland.com.au\/products\/governing-europe-hardback","provider":"Book Land AU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
