"Europeanization as a theme has for far too long been bound up with west European experience. This excellent volume opens up the subject as a way of better understanding and theorizing the processes of change in central and eastern Europe."—Helen Wallace, European University Institute
"This terrific book is without question the most theoretically sophisticated and wide-ranging analysis yet of the impact of European Union norms and rules in the candidate countries of Central and Eastern Europe."—Mark A. Pollack, Temple University
"The Europeanization of Central and Eastern Europe deals with an important topic in an interesting and theoretically informed way. It makes a significant contribution to a number of debates and lines of research in international relations, comparative public policy, and European studies."—Ellen Comisso, University of California, San Diego
"The Eastern enlargement of the EU constitutes one of the most significant processes of fundamental and peaceful domestic transformation as well as democratic consolidation in world history. This book demonstrates in detail that the extension of EU membership to Central and Eastern Europe is a process of Europeanization, that is, of fundamental domestic change in response to EU rules and regulations. The volume represents a superb example of theory-guided empirical research and the first one using the framework of Europeanization to study Eastern enlargement. If you want to understand the domestic impact of EU Eastern enlargement, you must read this book!"—Thomas Risse, Freie Universitët Berlin
