The book is designed to provide a comprehensive foundation text for students, libraries and practitioners alike and is up-to-date with the range of key changes introduced under the Treaty of Lisbon. Written by a team including public affairs professionals, led by Alan Hardacre of the European Institute of Public Administration (EIPA) in Maastricht, the book is packed with easy-to-follow figures and diagrams.
