In political, public and scholarly debates on processes of Europeanisation, Southern Europe invariably features as \u003ci\u003ethe\u003c\/i\u003e area of concern. These concerns have been all the more heightened when the current sovereign debt crisis disproportionately hit this 'flaky fringe'. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis volume systematically investigates the dynamics of Europeanisation in the 'Southern Periphery' by tracing the domestic constellations of ideas, interests and institutions over the course of the 2000s which came to a close with the crisis. Bringing together a multidisciplinary team of leading specialists, the volume focuses on the political economy of public policy reform in Greece, Italy, Malta, Portugal, Spain and Turkey. In order to allow for cross-case comparisons, these original country studies follow a common template framed by what the Editors call the 'Europeanisation as research programme'. The volume casts empirical light on the causes of the crisis in these cases as well as the past legacies conditioning their responses to the crisis. Its conclusions point to variegated patterns of Europeanisation in different policy areas across Southern Europe. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis volume will be of interest to students and scholars of European integration, European political economy, European public policy and comparative politics as well as specialists of Southern Europe.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book was published as a special issue of \u003cem\u003eSouth European Society and Politics\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Canan Balkir\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0415742935\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780415742931\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/04\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 170\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.95lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.80h x 7.00w x 0.50d","brand":"Canan Balkir","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48086651207935,"sku":"9780415742931","price":120.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_41eb5b2c-c613-4ad0-a4d7-ab70b3d6e994.jpg?v=1769095820","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/europeanisation-of-public-policy-in-canan-balkir-9780415742931","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
