The Europeanization of British Politics

It is impossible to understand contemporary British politics without a comprehension of the EU's role in shaping political agendas, influencing policy developments and framing political debates. While there is an extensive literature on Britain's behaviour in the EU, there are few book-length accounts of the domestic impact of EU membership. Drawing on expert contributions, this volume provides a state of the art account of how membership has affected the institutions of central, devolved and local government, the activities of organized interests, and major areas of public policy.
