This handbook comprehensively defines and shapes the field of
Critical European Union Studies, sets the research agenda and
highlights emerging areas of study. Bringing together critical
analyses of European Union politics, policies and processes with an
expert range of contributors, it overcomes disciplinary borders and
paradigms and addresses four main thematic areas pertaining to the
study of the European Union and its policies: * Critical approaches
to European integration; * Critical approaches to European
political economy; * Critical approaches to the EU's internal
security; * Critical approaches to the EU's external relations and
foreign affairs. In their contributions to this volume, the authors
take a sympathetic yet critical approach to the European
integration process and the present structures of the European
Union. Furthermore, the book provides graduate students and faculty
with ideas for future research activity and introduces critical
analyses rooted in a broad spectrum of theoretical perspectives.
The Routledge Handbook of Critical European Union Studies will be
an essential reference for scholars, students, researchers and
practitioners interested and working in the fields of EU
politics/studies, European integration, European political economy
and public policy, EU foreign policy, EU freedom of movement and
security practices, and more broadly in international relations,
the wider social sciences and humanities.

The debates on regionalism have been polarized between European
Union (EU) scholars and non-EU scholars, with the assumption being
that regionalism within the EU and other regions of the world are
quite distinct, with little to be learnt from dialogue with each
other. This book challenges such assumptions and calls for a
genuine debate between scholars of regionalism. This book
demonstrates that more can and needs to be learned about regional
integration all over the world through comparison and reflection on
specific regional trends. Beginning with a theoretically driven
introduction, leading experts in the field are brought together to
offer a series of case studies on regional integration within Latin
America, Africa, Asia, North America and Europe. In Part III the
authors investigate the links between the EU and selected other
regional organisations and processes, exploring the dynamics
through which these interregional relations are developing and the
implications they have for the study of contemporary
regionalism/regionalisation both inside and beyond the continent of
Europe. The conclusions set out a challenging research agenda for
comparative studies in the field. Addressing one of the
under-explored aspects of EU studies, the EU's coexistence with
other pan-continental/regional organisations in the European
continent, this book will be of interest to students and scholars
of regionalism, IPE, European Studies and international politics.
Regional economic and political integration is not a new phenomenon. The marked growth of regionalism and regionalisation however, has been one of the most striking features of the global political economy in recent years. This edited book features a distinguished list of international contributors who provide a systematic and stimulating 'state of the art' discussion on regionalism and key issues such as sovereignty, autonomy, identity and the long-term effects of global financial crises.

The surprise decision expressed by the British people in the
referendum held in June 2016 to leave the European Union was
remarkable. It also presents a "natural experiment" where the
exposure of a society to an extraordinary event allows scholars to
observe, in real time in the real world, the interaction of
variables. The Routledge Handbook of the Politics of Brexit takes
stock of what we know in the social science community about the
Brexit phenomenon so far and looks to make sense of this remarkable
process as it unfolds. The book asks simple questions across a
range of areas and topics so as to frame the debate into a number
of navigable "subdiscussions", providing structure and form to what
is an evolving and potentially inchoate topic. As such, it provides
a systematic account of the background for, the content of, and the
possible implications of Brexit. The handbook therefore does not
examine in detail the minutiae of Brexit as it unfolds on a
day-to-day basis but raises its sights to consider both the broad
contextual factors that shape and are shaped by Brexit and the
deeper sources and implications of the British exit from the
European Union. Importantly, as interest in Brexit reaches far
beyond the shores of the United Kingdom, so an international team
of contributors examines and reveals the global implications and
the external face of Brexit. The Routledge Handbook of the Politics
of Brexit will be essential reading and an authoritative reference
for scholars, students, researchers and practitioners involved in
and actively concerned about research on Brexit, British politics,
European Union politics, and comparative politics and international
relations.

This book moves scholarly debates beyond the old question of
whether or not international institutions matter in order to
examine how they matter, even in a world of power politics. Power
politics and international institutions are often studied as two
separate domains, but this is in need of rethinking because today
most states strategically use institutions to further their
interests. Anders Wivel, T.V. Paul, and the international group of
contributing authors update our understanding of how institutions
are viewed among the major theoretical paradigms in international
relations, and they seek to bridge the divides. Empirical chapters
examine specific institutions in practice, including the United
Nations, International Atomic Energy Agency, and the European
Union. The book also points the way to future research.
International Institutions and Power Politics provides insights for
both international relations theory and practical matters of
foreign affairs, and it will be essential reading for all
international relations scholars and advanced students.
