The European Commission

More about the book

Some view the European Commission, the executive branch of the European Union, as one of the most innovative administrative bodies in the world, while others see it as a bureaucratic giant. This book does away with these superficial and simplified ideas. It shows how the Commission acts with other players as part of a balanced system of decision-making. Straightforward and accessible, it de-mystifies procedures, practices, and policies which, up until now, have been perceived by many as baffling and oblique.
