The term 'Eurocracy' is a word that exists in all European
languages. Yet beyond fantasized representations of the 'Brussels
bubble', we know little about members of the European Parliament,
Commissioners, European civil servants, lobbyists, members of the
Governing Council of the European Central Bank, European trade
unionists, diplomats and journalists who work in or around the EU
institutions? What are their social and professional trajectories,
the type of authority they possess, and how does it matter? Based
on extensive fieldwork, this volume aims at answering these
questions by building upon Pierre Bourdieu's theory of the field of
bureaucracy. 45 years after Altiero Spinelli's 'The Eurocrats',
this book sheds new light on the relational structures that
underpin the functioning of the EU polity. Specialists of European
affairs, scholars and students in politics, administration and
sociology as well as citizens will find original insights to
understanding EU institutions and why the European project appears
to be in crisis.
