Green Parties and Politics in the European Union

The book explores the complex relationship between the 'greening' of European politics and European integration, highlighting the strategic challenges faced by Green parties within the EU framework. It examines how these parties can align their radical ideals with the mainstream political landscape. Through over 100 interviews with key figures, including green politicians and EU officials, the author provides insights into the dynamics of environmental politics in Europe. Appendices offer profiles of green parties and important policy-making institutions across the continent.
