商品描述

This book analyses the role of Europarties in the deepening of integration and the debates on the future of Europe. It is guided by three fundamental research questions: What strategies do Europarties utilize to advance their visions of Europe? What is the relative influence of the actors in the networks of the Europarties? How successful have the Europarties been in shaping the future of Europe? European integration cannot be understood without accounting for the impact of the Europarties. Theoretically, the book utilizes the concepts of advocacy and agenda-setting, identifying Europarties as transnational partisan actors operating at intergovernmental and supranational levels of EU decision-making. Europarties have consolidated their organizational structures, and more importantly, have over the decades built their own networks and coalitions that enable them to wield influence in ways rarely captured by previous studies. Empirically, the book investigates the networks and positions of the Europarties, constitutional reform processes, and the role of the Europarties and their EP political groups in the broader debates on the future of Europe.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

本書分析了歐洲政黨在加深一體化和歐洲未來辯論中的角色。研究問題包括:歐洲政黨利用什麼策略推進他們對歐洲的願景?歐洲政黨網絡中的各方在多大程度上具有影響力?歐洲政黨在塑造歐洲未來方面取得了多大的成功?歐洲一體化無法理解,如果不考慮歐洲政黨的影響。在理論上,本書運用了倡議和議程設定的概念,將歐洲政黨定位為在歐盟決策的政府間和超國家層面上運作的跨國黨派角色。歐洲政黨已經鞏固了他們的組織結構,更重要的是,他們在幾十年的時間裡建立了自己的網絡和聯盟,使他們能夠以前所未有的方式施加影響力,這是以前的研究很少涉及的。從實證上看,本書調查了歐洲政黨的網絡和立場,憲法改革過程,以及歐洲政黨及其歐洲議會政治團體在關於歐洲未來的更廣泛辯論中的角色。
