The contributors present portraits of European policy-making in the member states in the 1990s. They show how Member States have adapted their insitutional structures in different ways to European integration, especially since the Maastricht Treaty. The editors argue that the extent and intensity of insitutional interaction between the EU and its member states have led to a "system of institutional fusion". This book is a comprehensive study of European policy-making at the national level. It provides scholars of integration studies and comparative polities with an insight in the European integration process in the member states.
