Civil society and governance in Europe

"This book integrates 'top-down' approaches for the study of relationships within the developing EU-multilevel system and 'bottom-up' approaches. The contributors argue that exploration of these recursive linkages requires a rethinking of the relationships between (local, national, and trans-national) civil society on the one hand, and multi-level governance on the other. This book will be welcomed by academics and scholars alike at postgraduate levels and above."--BOOK JACKET.
