{"product_id":"intitutionalization-of-europe-the","title":"Intitutionalization of Europe, The","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn 1950, a European political space existed, if only as a very primitive site of international governance.  Today, the European Union governs in an ever-growing number of policy domains.  Increasingly dense networks of transnational actors representing electorates, member state governments, firms, and specialized interests operate in arenas that are best understood as supranational.  At the same time, the capacity of European organizations - the Bank, the\n\u003cbr\u003eCommission, and the Court of Justice - to make authoritative policy decisions has steadily expanded, profoundly transforming the very nature of the European polity.This book, a companion\n\u003cbr\u003evolume to European Integration and Supranational Governance, offers readers a sophisticated theoretical account of this transformation, as well as original empirical research.  The editors elaborate an innovative synthesis of institutionalist theory that contributors use to explain the sources and consequences of the emergence and institutionalization of European political arenas.  Some chapters examine the evolution of integration and supranational governance across time and policy domain. \n\u003cbr\u003eOthers recount more discrete episodes, including: the development of women's rights, the judicial review of administrative acts, a stable system of interest group representation, and enhanced cooperation\n\u003cbr\u003ein foreign policy and security; the creation of the European Central Bank; the emergence of new policy competences, such as for policing and immigration;  and the multi-dimensional impact of European policies on national modes of governance.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oxford University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44082435522798,"sku":"9780199247950","price":334.36,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0630\/9612\/7726\/files\/9780199247950.jpg?v=1706227408","url":"https:\/\/bookland.com.au\/products\/intitutionalization-of-europe-the","provider":"Book Land AU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
