Reader Reviews:
European Union Politics- highly recommended (4/4 people found this helpful)
I completely agree with the sentiments already expressed, I found this to be really a good book on the European Union. I would recommend this as it gives you a solid base of understanding of what has gone on, is going on and will continue to go on in the EU. The history, the policies, the institutions, the theories and contemporary debates are all addressed, for the most part in a very clear and concise manner.
As a European Studies undergraduate I have found this to have been an invaluable resource in my second year of study especially. However, I will issue a caveat in my praise, in saying that if you are interested in very specific issues, I would suggest that you find other books that deal with them in greater detail. For this is a more general book, and you may find that this book hardly skims the surface in your area of interest. Saying that, as a book that explains the wider picture this book cannot be faulted; and if you are a layman, a history/politics/European Studies student or just a person with a keen interest in current affairs I very much recommend this work by Michelle Cini.
Excellent Overview (7/7 people found this helpful)
As a postgraduate student of European Studies, I have found Cini's book to be an invaluable resource. The chapters span not just the institutional set-up, but also focuses on policies, issues, theories etc. Cini also does a wonderful job with key points and summaries for each section. This provides an excellent opportunity to refresh one's memory on what is a rather complex subject. In a genre of books that are often too specific or too general, "European Union Politics" shines bright as an essential must have for any student of the European Union.
