Interior Policies -- Economic Policy

Indeks : p.234-238 ; p.209-233 ; This book offers an innovative theoretical and empirical analysis of intergration in EU foreign and interior policies across the three pillars, from the Maastricht Treaty to the Treaty of Nice. The establishment of the three-pillar structure in the Maastricht Treaty has been one of the key transformations of European governance. This divided EU policies into three main areas: European Community, Common Foreign and Security Policy (CFSP) and Justice and Home Affairs (JHA). For the first time the two sovereignty related areas of foreign and interior policy became part of the formal governance structure of the EU. It is unlikely in the extreme that these external challenges will weaken in the near future. The insights this book offers will thus be of relevance to a widening circle of policy-makers, as well as to those who study their actions or who seek to hold them to account.
