European Union Council Presidencies Summary

European Union Council Presidencies: A Comparative Analysis by Ole Elgstroem

There are no competing titles that look at the EU Council Presidencies with such breadth or detail; there are only odd chapters in books

The book brings together an impressive range of experts from across Europe

The book includes studies of the following countries' Presidencies: the UK, Germany, France, Finland, the Netherlands, Belgium, Portugal, Spain & Sweden

This book will be an invaluable resource for those working on the EU and should become the key reference title on the topic
