The European Union, Cohesion Policy, and Subnational Authorities in the United Kingdom
This chapter describes and analyses the relationship in the United Kingdom between subnational authorities, central government, and the European Union (EU) after the 1988 reform of the structural funds. It pays particular attention to the partnership arrangements introduced for administering EU regional policy, which formed part of the European Commission’s concept of cohesion policy discussed in the Introduction to this volume. We also consider …
Policy Networks and Policy-Making in the European Union
It is commonplace to treat policy-making in the European Union (EU) as distinctive. The EU is neither a federation nor an inter-governmental body, although it has features of both. The policy process varies and does not conform to a single pattern or model (Nugent 1994: 297). However, this chapter adopts a different approach because it does not start with the differences between the EU and the member states. It focuses on similarities and asks wh…
Britain
If ‘Eurosceptic’ means ‘opposed to increasing the powers of the European Union’, the record of successive British governments suggests that Britain could be described as a Eurosceptic state. This article reviews that record, examines the reasons for it, and the prospects for change. It looks at the cultural and economic factors that have affected the attitude of governments, the prejudices of political elites, the pattern of interest group pressu…

The approach of the British government to the 1996 intergovernmental conference of the European Union
The British government's position in the 1996 IGC will reflect long‐standing policy positions that have been shared by both main parties. This consistency in policy was partly masked by the tone of British statements on Europe during the Thatcher premierships. However, there was a change of tone when Major came to office, and this was followed by successful British diplomacy in the 1991 IGC on political union, with the result that, on the issues …
A Reply to Buller
In this reply to Buller's article, Stephen George argues that although the comments made about the ‘awkward partner thesis’ are a valid critique of some common assumptions found in the media, they do not represent his position accurately; also that Buller's critique of explanations of British governments' attitudes to the EC which concentrate on institutions cannot be made of the domestic politics approach that he has adopted

Great Britain and the European Community
Adaptation by the British governmental elite to membership in the European Community has been slow and has been hampered by domestic political constraints. This article examines the problems of adaptation under the Thatcher and Major governments. The political sovereignty dimension, the U.K. budget contribution, British public opinion, and EC farm policy were central issues that London was to bring to the front burner of Community activity. The o…
