• catalog abstract ""Much media and public comment about the European Union focuses upon its supposedly bureaucratic character. But what is the character of the EU bureaucracy and how does it work? More than 40000 people are employed in the administration of the European Union. Who are they and what do they do? Are they really remote and bureaucratic?" "Anne and Handley Stevens look at how the administration has evolved, the impact on it of the national traditions from which its members come, how they got their jobs and how they get promoted and advance their careers. In the light of revelations of malpractice and fraud, the book pays particular attention to how the administration is managed and to proposals and prospects for reform." "This thorough and authoritative book provides an accessible account of the EU 'civil service' which will be essential reading for students of European integration and of public administration and for everyone who has dealings with - or is preparing for employment in - the European Union bureaucracy."--Jacket.".
