This book, newly available in paperback, examines a hitherto
under-researched aspect of the European Union's policy process -
the extent and the nature of the involvement of central governments
in the implementation of EU public policy. It discusses how the
co-ordination of these institutions affects their capacity to shape
the way in which the commitments that they make in Brussels are
turned into concrete reality at the national level. It shows that
the nature of their involvement in implementation reflects the
pattern of their involvement in the formulation of EU policy.
However, since implementation unfolds over long periods of time,
its patterns can change over time. The author draws on empirical
evidence regarding the liberalisation of public procurement to
demonstrate how the institutions of central governments bring about
change. Comparing the central governments of Greece, France and
Britain over a twenty-five year period, the author demonstrates
that - far from being the passive conduits of pressure emanating
from the EU - the institutions of national central governments
actively steer the implementation of EU public policy. -- .
