Synopsis

In an EU increasingly worried about the security of its citizens and its territory, how should the European Parliament make policy decisions in these areas? This study investigates how the empowerment of the European Parliament has led it to abandon its defence of civil liberties in order to become a full partner in inter-institutional negotiations

Review:

“This book addresses a very topical puzzle that cuts across both institutional issues and policy debates. ... The book is cohesive and reads well. ... Overall the book is a very valuable contribution both for academics and practitioners alike and substantially contributes to our understanding both of the role of the EP, of EU decision-making procedures and of the domain of AFSJ.” (Christine Neuhold, Journal of Common Market Studies, Vol. 54 (3), 2016)
