Political science & theory; EU & European institutions

European Union Governance and Policy-Making introduces the politics of the European Union (EU) to a student audience. The book is explicitly written for students enrolled in universities in Canada, or other non-EU countries, and builds on their academic background. Chapters cover the political and legal system of the EU, theories of European integration, core EU policies such as the Single Market, its single currency, migration policy, EU enlargement, as well as pressing issues facing the further development of European integration.

This second edition has been comprehensively revised and updated to include a discussion of Brexit, the European Green Deal, COVID-19, and the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Written by leading Canadian scholars in the field of European integration, as well as international experts with teaching experience in Canadian universities, this textbook leverages the comparison to Canada and its federal system to help students understand what is unique about the European Union.

Reviews for European Union Governance and Policy-Making, Second Edition: A Canadian Perspective

""An outstanding and comprehensive introduction to the contemporary European Union. The book stands out for its systematic comparisons of the European Union with Canadian federalism, the thoughtful discussion questions and exercises at the end of each chapter, and the well-curated, up-to-date recommendations for additional reading. Highly recommended for both undergraduate and graduate courses on the European Union."" --Juliet Johnson, McGill University ""This updated edition, written by the top EU specialists in Canada, provides a unique Canadian focused perspective on complex issues in European Union governance and policy. The range of topics, including executive, judicial, and legislative aspects of multilevel governance development of institutions, core policy areas and ongoing challenges of enlargement, mobility, diversity, democracy, and sustainability, makes it an indispensable textbook for university courses on the contemporary EU."" --Robert G. Finbow, Dalhousie University ""A comprehensive, lively, and eminently accessible introduction to European Union governance, written by leading experts. A superb resource for Canadian students, pundits, and policy-makers!"" --Liesbet Hooghe, University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, and European University Institute, Florence
