Roosevelt Academy invites you to a symposium to celebrate the launch of The Politics of the European Union , a new EU-textbook written by Herman Lelieveldt and Sebastiaan Princen, published by Cambridge University Press. Policy-making in EU member states is increasingly determined by political decisions made by the EU. What does this mean for the role of national parliaments in EU policy-making and the role parliamentarians could and should play? Do they have sufficient knowledge, interest and resources to keep an eye on European integration? How does their stand affect citizens’ evaluations of the EU? Three experts will give their views on these matters and debate them with the audience.
