Recensioner i media

Praise from the first edition:"Ambitious in scope, impressive in its mastery of historical detail and contemporary theory, bold in its methods – and highly readable. Magone’s work is destined to become a classic reference for any student of European politics."David Hanley, Professor Emeritus of European Studies, Cardiff University, UK"With a rare combination of encyclopaedic knowledge and analytical skills, this engaging textbook takes Europe back to where the action is. José Magone’s pan-European approach offers a comprehensive and careful view of European politics since the fall of the Berlin Wall and provides a truly comparative basis for understanding the most recent dynamics of Europe at different levels. The result is a book which is an invaluable addition to the literature."José Ramón Montero, Universidad Autónoma de Madrid, SpainPraise for this edition:"A sweeping buffet of facts and arguments analyzing change in Europe from the 17th century to 2018. A useful blend of theory and empirics for those who want an accessible introduction to a diverse region."Nancy Bermeo, Professor Emeritus University of Oxford, UK
