Summary
The complex patterns of policy making and implementation in the European Union pose particular challenges for policy analysis. This groundbreaking new text equips readers with a thorough understanding of how EU policy is formulated, implemented and evaluated and with the tools and concepts needed to analyze the EU policy processThe first half of the book examines the theory and methodology of policy analysis. The authors then conduct a detailed analysis of the five stages of policy making: agenda setting, policy shaping, decision making, implementation and evaluation. Case studies and real-life examples are included throughout to illustrate how theory translates into practice. The book concludes by considering the constantly changing political environment in which EU policy is made and discusses the distinctiveness of the policy process as a whole --Book Jacket
