Conclusion (Krzysztof Zuba). 330 $aBased on the example of the Polish delegation to the European Parliament, the book examines the factors influencing the cohesion and stability of EP national delegations. It takes into account the impact of institutional arrangements such as the electoral law and the candidate selection process, the ideological and programmatic profiles of political parties, the career paths of MEPs, affiliation to political groups in the EP, group switching, as well as the significance of Euroscepticism and national divisions transferred to the European level. It is not a typical case study, as the regularities discovered through the in-depth analysis of the Polish national delegation are compared with those characteristic of other national delegations in the EP. The book fills a gap in studies devoted to the EP, in which the importance of national delegations has not so far been the subject of thorough analyses. Krzysztof Zuba is a professor of political sciences. He is the head ofEuropean Study chair in the Institute of Political Science and Administration, University of Opole. His areas of research include: Politics in Poland, religion and politics, European integration. He is the author and editor of eight books. 410 0$aCentral and Eastern European Perspectives on International Relations,$x2947-7999 606 $aEurope$xPolitics and government 606 $aComparative government 606 $aInternational relations 606 $aEuropean Politics 606 $aComparative Politics 606 $aInternational Relations 615 0$aEurope$xPolitics and government. 615 0$aComparative government. 615 0$aInternational relations. 615 14$aEuropean Politics. 615 24$aComparative Politics. 615 24$aInternational Relations. 676 $a341.242224 676 $a341.242224 701 $aZuba$b Krzysztof$f1969-$01431112 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910731489203321 996 $aThe Polish delegation in the European Parliament$93572765 997 $aUNINA
