European Union Politics offers an engaging, lucid, and comprehensive introduction to what has become the fast-moving and at times tumultuous field of contemporary European politics. Spanning the history, institutions and policies of the EU, McCormick skilfully brings EU politics to life with up-to-date examples, research, infographics, country snapshots and case studies. This is the single best resource on EU politics for students, lecturers and researchers.
European Union Politics is a real masterpiece.

As such, this book provides an ideal text for undergraduate and postgraduate students eager to familiarize themselves with European Union politics.
This is the perfect introduction for those wishing to understand how the EU really works. It offers a broad picture of the EU's political system in an approachable way and cuts through the complexities with great supporting features.
Detailed and insightful, the third edition of European Union Politics provides a comprehensive examination of European integration covering theory, governance, and key policy areas as well as offering snapshots of the individual member states. It is an excellent resource and textbook for students and indeed anyone interested in how European integration has evolved and the challenges and debates it encompasses. McCormick succeeds in making accessible an organisation and subject area that all too often are perceived as complex and impenetrable.

This new version of a modern classic preserves the accessible and comprehensive style of the previous edition while updating the text for recent events and challenges, ranging from the financial crisis to new security issues. It skilfully balances the full scale of EU-related questions, including its history, attendant theories, institutions and policies. Strongly recommended for undergraduates and graduates alike.
