European Civil Service in (Times of) Crisis: A Political Sociology of the Changing Power of Eurocrats
European Civil Service in (Times of) Crisis: A Political Sociology of the Changing Power of Eurocrats By Didier Georgakakis
English | PDF | 2017 | 334 Pages | ISBN : 3319517910 | 6.29 MB
This book, part of the new wave of political sociology in EU studies, examines the dialectics of construction/deconstruction of the European civil service through a succession of empirically grounded case studies.
Breaking with the usual representations of ‘Eurocrats’, it sheds light on a hidden aspect of the current European crisis: a crisis of social reproduction which affects the European civil service in a heavy context of management reforms, enlargements, institutional changes and the euro crisis. This in turn has a number of consequences in terms of internal tensions, power, and more broadly, the capacity of EU institutions to create convergence between diverging national and economic interests, and to embody a European future.
European Civil Service in (Times of) Crisis will be of interest to students and scholars across a wide range of disciplines, including politics, sociology and public administration, to practitioners working in and with the EU institutions, as well as those wishing to know more about the EU.
