Handbook on Germany’s European Policy, 1st Edition
The Handbook on German European Policy is published in times of multiple crises, rising skepticism, and concerns about Germany’s ties with the European Union. In this context, it emphasizes the importance of European integration and the political and economic benefits Germany gains from its EU membership. Furthermore, the texts illustrate Germany’s great impact on shaping the European integration process and the EU’s policy-making processes.
In this unique handbook, 38 authors analyse Germany’s European Policy, its broad parameters, and basic concepts in important EU policy fields, as well as Germany’s domestic determinants, actors and most important bilateral relations with other EU member states. Therefore, this handbook will be a helpful guide for anyone who deals with various aspects of Germany’s European Policy in academic, political or practical ways.
