The European Parliament (European Union)

US Books > Law > International Law > General

This broad-ranging text examines the political dynamic of the European Parliament within the developing European Union and sets it in the broader context of comparative legislative analysis. To this end the authors analyze the roles performed by the European Parliament as a "legislature;" its part in the EU's decision making process; and its contribution to crucial debates about democracy, legitimacy and the "parliamentarization" of the European Union.
