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)

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.

This A-Z guide explains the key concepts and institutions linked to the European Union, along with brief biographies of the leading figures related to the foundation and development of the EU. This will allow students to link some of the theoretical concepts with the people who introduced them. The book is useful in discerning between the British and European Parliaments - students often confuse many of the concepts of the EU with those of the British Government, and the definitions in this Glossary will demonstrate that the bodies have differing roles to play in many aspects of their existenc

This book considers the environmental policies that the EU employs outside its borders. Using a systematic and coherent approach to cover a range of EU activities, environmental issues, and geographical areas, it charts the EU’s attempts to shape environmental governance beyond its borders. Key questions addressed include: What environmental norms, rules and policies does the EU seek to promote outside its territory? What types of activities does the EU engage in to pursue these objectives? How successful is the EU in achieving its external environmental policy objectives? What factors explain the degree to which the EU attains its goals? The book will be of interest to students and academics as well as practitioners in governments (both inside and outside of the EU), the EU institutions, think tanks, and research institutes.
