Acknowledging that governance relies not only on formal rules and
institutions but to a significant degree also on informal practices
and arrangements, this unique Handbook examines and analyzes a wide
variety of theoretical, conceptual and normative perspectives on
informal governance. The insights arising from this focus on
informal governance are discussed from various disciplinary
perspectives, within different policy domains, and in a number of
regional and global contexts. This Handbook is an important
contribution that will put informal governance firmly on the map of
academic scholarship with its review of the range of the different
uses and effects of informal arrangements across the globe.
Bringing together multidisciplinary contributions on informal
governance arrangements, this Handbook will appeal to postgraduate
students in political science and scholars within the field of
political science and global governance.
This book offers a comprehensive overview of the role of
parliamentary administrations in the control of European Union
policy-making. It questions whether the decision to give
parliaments greater powers in the aftermath of the Lisbon Treaty
had only the intended effect of political debate on European
policies, or whether it has also resulted in the bureaucratisation
of parliaments. The authors argue that the challenges of
information-management faced by parliaments lead them to delegate
an extensive set of tasks to their administrations. They offer a
broad empirical picture, analysing the challenges faced by national
parliaments and the role and response of their administrations in
the case of the European Parliament, national parliaments and
regional parliaments. In addition, the book studies the interaction
between different administrations and their contribution to
interparliamentary cooperation. It presents a new and different
perspective on the challenges and dynamics of multi-level
parliamentarism.

This book examines some of the major origins of change in
institutions and policies in European governance. The authors
combine a sophisticated institutional analysis with in-depth
insights into European policies across a wide variety of policy
fields. The fields examined are higher education, employment,
research, police co-operation, as well as foreign affairs, trade,
energy, and security and defence policy. Presenting the fruit of
years of collaboration in an EU-funded Research Training Network,
the authors expand the mechanisms through which political actors
transform apparent deadlock into actual change in European policy
making. Providing a systematic treatment of changing modes of
European governance, Dynamics and Obstacles of European Governance
will be of great interest to those in the fields of international
politics and European studies, as well as European law and policy
studies.
