About
We are pleased to invite you to a Book Methods Workshop designed especially for graduate students. This short crash course will introduce some of the key methodological approaches used in the book, with a focus on concrete empirical applications. Beyond the methods, the workshop will offer an inside look into the process of writing and publishing a book: from developing the initial research idea, to conducting the research, to navigating the path of finding a publisher, peer review, and final publication. This is a unique opportunity to both learn practical research methods and gain valuable insight into the academic publishing cycle—skills and perspectives directly relevant to your own doctoral journey.

Balancing pressures: the Politics of Governing the European Economy
by Fabia Franchino and Camilla Mariotto
Balancing Pressures analyses how the economy, national politics, and supranational politics shape economic policymaking in the European Union. Economic theories alert policymakers of the problems associated with policy initiatives. Economic uncertainties shape political positioning during negotiations, while actual economic conditions affect both negotiations and implementation. National pressures to win office and pursue policies systematically influence negotiating positions, implementation patterns, and outcomes. Supranational pressures are associated with membership in the euro area, the expected and actual patterns of compliance, or the context of negotiations. Spanning the period of 1994 to 2019, this book analyses how these pressures shaped the definition of the policy problems, the controversies surrounding policy reforms, the outcome, timing, and direction of reforms, the negotiations over preventive surveillance, the compliance with recommendations, and the use and effectiveness of the procedure to correct excessive fiscal deficits. It concludes by assessing the effectiveness, fairness, and responsiveness of the policy.
