This book examines the politics of Hungary's accession to the European Union, from the early 1990s to 2004. The book provides a conceptually grounded yet accessible analysis of the way questions related to EU membership, and European integration in general, are channelled into political life. Starting with a comparative exploration of the impact of European integration on party politics in Western and Eastern Europe, the book goes on to review the Hungarian political parties' history, ideological profiles, electoral competition and coalition-building in government and opposition, as well as the dynamics of public opinion.Batory, Agnes is the author of 'The Politics of EU Accession: Ideology, Party Strategy and the European Question in Hungary', published 2008 under ISBN 9780719075285 and ISBN 0719075289.
