Rezensionen
'This book transcends the now problematic divide between representational and practical approaches to understanding geopolitical relations. More specifically, much research on the EU tends to focus more on the formal workings of the institutions and rarely penetrates the corridors of power to consider what actually happens within the bureaucracy itself. The book is to be welcomed as a contribution to theoretical debate in human geography and as a significant contribution to EU Studies.' --John Agnew, UCLA
'In contrast to the oceans of generalization about the European Union, here is a high-resolution study of the balance of interests and power based on years of face-to-face interactions with diplomats and Eurocrats who inhabit Brussels' European Quarter.' --James D Sidaway, National University of Singapore
