It focuses on the network-like informal structures that characterised transnational cooperation between the party members and leaders of different socialist parties involved in European affairs. Taking the example of two case studies, namely EC development aid policy and EC southern enlargement policy, the book demonstrates that the socialist parties strengthened their informal transnational network structures for the purposes of debating ideological and programmatic issues and finding policy solutions to common challenges in both policy fields. Moreover, it shows that the networks developed various functions to influence European governance. Against this background, the analysis in this book makes not only a significant contribution to the study of transnational networks of western European socialist parties and the history of European integration, but also adds to the understanding of the role of transnational networks in European politics and policy-making.Palgrave Studies in the History of Social Movements,2634-6567EuropeHistoryEuropePolitics and governmentWorld historyPolitical scienceHistory, ModernEuropean HistoryEuropean PoliticsWorld History, Global and Transnational HistoryPolitical TheoryModern HistoryPolitical ScienceEuropeHistory.EuropePolitics and government.World history.Political science.History, Modern.European History.European Politics.World History, Global and Transnational History.Political Theory.Modern History.Political Science.338.91/4Salm Christianauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut868546BOOK9910254780803321Transnational Socialist Networks in the 1970s1938768UNINA
