Political Parties in the European Community (1979) looks at the decision by the member governments of the European Community to proceed to the direct election of a European Parliament. It provides a full survey of the parties of the nine EC states, giving both information and analysis on political and electoral systems, party systems, philosophy and structure of major parties, finances, membership and organisation. In addition, it deals with the evolution of transnational groupings of parties both inside and outside the European Parliament, and the concluding chapter places Europe’s parties in the overall context of the political societies within which they operate.

European Political Parties (1969) looks at the parties of Western Europe on a country by country basis, examining their roles in the increasing political integration in the European Economic Community. The party system is described, with a structural-functional analysis of individual parties. Particular emphasis is given to the relationship between the parties and their respective parliamentary groups, and between leaders and members.
