Reviews
“Anne Drumaux and Paul Joyce have written a much needed book about strategic management at the state level in the context of the European Union. This is a very thorough and detailed piece of work about the intersection between governance, institutional theory, and economics, and as such, is unique in its kind. It will be of great value to anyone interested in how the EU works, and more so, in how it can and should work even better. I highly recommend this book.” (Zeger van der Wal, Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy, National University of Singapore)
“Strategic Management and Governancefor Europe provides an exceptional, up-to-date analysis of the policy, managerial, and coordinating challenges that Europe faces. Among its many outstanding features, it clarifies highly complex trends, it contrasts policy assertions with performance data, and uses highly visual state-of-the art research tools to provide insight and support for its analyses and recommendations. It should be read by every European policy maker and administrator to better understand the complex world they work in.” (Montgomery Van Wart, California State University San Bernardino, USA, and Visiting Research Professor, National University of Ireland)
