Abstract

Ondanks het belang van federale en regionale politiek moeten we vooral rekening houden met de regelgeving die zich op een hoger echelon ontwikkelt, nl. op het gebied van de Europese Unie. Dit is een onbekend domein voor velen onder ons, en, wat niet gekend is, is vaak ondergewaardeerd. Dat blijkt vooral uit dit boek, waar we niet enkel de werking en het belang van de EU leren onderkennen, maar op een zeer pragmatische en concrete wijze inzicht krijgen hoe belangrijk de Unie is voor ons dagelijkse leven. Het lijkt een ver-van-ons-bed-show, maar niets is minder waar. Op concrete wijze ontdekken we hoe de EU direct een invloed heeft op onze eigen portemonnee doorheen onder meer de Euro en de betalingssystemen op Europees vlak. Ook als reizende burger heeft de EU impact op ons doen en laten, alsook op vlak van mobiliteit. Rechtsreeks heeft de regelgeving ook impact op ons bord, ons gedrag als consument, het milieu, onze sociale kaders, de aanpak van criminaliteit, de financiën voor het uitbouwen van het grote Europa, de sociale ingesteldheid van Europa, de buitenlandse politiek. Het werk biedt tevens een zicht op de toekomst van de Unie doorheen de uitbreidingen en de gevolgen hiervan. Kort en bondig krijgen we ook een handleiding in de werking van de instellingen, een zicht opr de marketing van de Unie, en waarom we eigenlijk (te) weinig weten als burger van deze instellingen en de impact van de beslissingen op onze eigen realiteit (P Vandendaele)

Abstract

What does EU law truly mean for the member states? Do they abide or don't they? This book presents the first encompassing and in-depth empirical study of the effects of 'voluntaristic' and (partly) 'soft' EU policies in all 15 member states. The authors examine 90 case studies across a range of EU Directives and shed light on burning contemporary issues in political science, integration theory, and social policy. They reveal that there are major implementation failures and that, to date, the European Commission has not been able adequately to perform its control function. While all countries are occasional non-compliers, some quite frequently privilege their domestic political concerns over performance of their EU-related duties. Others neglect these EU obligations as a matter of course. This study answers questions of crucial importance for politics in theory and in practice, and suggests how implementation of EU law can be fostered in the future.

Abstract

As economic competition is introduced into areas formerly served by public sector monopolies, to what extent do governments lose discretion over their use of the public sector? States of Liberalization examines the impact of the European Union's rigorous single-market competition policy on the abilities of Western European governments to use the public sector to achieve political objectives. Examining several politically contentious sectors, including government purchasing of goods and services, postal services, and public sector financial institutions, Mitchell P. Smith explores and explains the scope and the limits of this transformation. While European economic integration and the application of European Community competition policy have substantially infused competition into public services, the process has been more modest, and more deliberate, than a simple reading of Europe's potent market-making mechanisms would predict.

Abstract

Democracy in Europe is about the impact of European integration on national democracies. It argues that the oft-cited democratic deficit is indeed a problem, but not so much at the level of the European Union per se as at the national level. This is because national leaders and publics have yet to come to terms with the institutional impact of the EU on the traditional workings of their national democracies. The book begins with a discussion of what the EU is-a new form of 'regional state' in which sovereignty is shared, boundaries are variable, identity composite, and democracy fragmented. It
