The National Co-ordination of EU Policy: The Domestic Level

This book is one of two volumes in which leading scholars examine how EU member states co-ordinate their European policies. Eschewing the "Europeanization" problematic within which the issue is usually addressed, this book adopts a broader, more inclusive approach. It examines domestic processes and investigates co-ordination in ten member states--Austria, Belgium, Denmark, France, Germany, Greece, Italy, Portugal, Spain, and the United Kingdom--looking at co-ordinating ambitions, the actors involved in EU policy making, and the structures and processes by which policy is made.
