Multi-Level Governance and European Integration

The book explores the concept of multi-level governance in Europe, highlighting the simultaneous centralization of authority within the EU and the decentralization to subnational regions. Authors Liesbet Hooghe and Gary Marks argue that this dual process marks a significant turning point in Europe's political evolution since the late twentieth century. They analyze the reasons behind this shift and its implications for political conflicts at both national and European levels, offering insights into the complexities of contemporary European governance.
