Note publique d'information : "The term 'Eurocracy' is a word that exists in all European languages. Yet beyond
fantasized representations of the 'Brussels bubble', we know little about members
of the European Parliament, Commissioners, European civil servants, lobbyists, members
of the Governing Council of the European Central Bank, European trade unionists, diplomats
and journalists who work in or around the EU institutions? What are their social and
professional trajectories, the type of authority they possess, and how does it matter?
Based on extensive fieldwork, this volume aims at answering these questions by building
upon Pierre Bourdieu's theory of the field of bureaucracy. 45 years after Altiero
Spinelli's 'The Eurocrats', this book sheds new light on the relational structures
that underpin the functioning of the EU polity. Specialists of European affairs, scholars
and students in politics, administration and sociology as well as citizens will find
original insights to understanding EU institutions and why the European project appears
to be in crisis. "-- (site de l'éditeur)
