Reviews
"The European Union Decides is a powerful analysis of decision processes in the European Union. THis reviewer felt some trepidation upon receiving an edited volume to examine, as it foreshadowed another batch of collected papers from some conference. Such concerns were quickly laid to rest, as this book provides a coherent, insightful discussion regarding how the pieces of the European Union's decision apparatus fit together and how scholars might better understand policy outcomes. The analysis tests a wide range of formal models to refine understanding of critical questions, such as what role specific institutions play in the formulation of day-to-day policy, and whether the cooperation described in less formal analyses holds across issues." - John H. P. Williams, East Carolina University, British Politics Group Newsletter, 'The European Union Decides provides a deep understanding of the institutions of governance in the European Union coupled with keen insight into how decision-making processes work and how one can effectively evaluate alternative accounts of those processes. No one interested in the European Union or in decision-making strategies can afford not to read and internalize the insights in this book.' Bruce Bueno de Mesquita, Julius Silver Professor of Politics, NYU and Senior Fellow, Hoover Institution, Stanford University, 'The European Union Decides offers the first systematic empirical assessment of decision-making in the European Union. Guided by the idea of competitively testing various models of decision-making, the authors of this volume demonstrate the usefulness of theory-guided research and provide a unique insight into the EU. Given the carefully crafted empirical tests this volume is not only a must-read for EU scholars, but also researchers engaged in studies of decision-making in other political arenas.'
