L’ouvrage se focalise sur la formation et la reproduction de l’institution judiciaire roumaine moderne et sur le processus de problématisation et de mise à l’agenda de la question de l’indépendance de la justice dans la Roumanie post-communiste. L’analyse de la réforme de la justice est une façon d’interroger la qualité d’une démocratie. Le livre suit le devenir politique de la question de l’indépendance de la justice et analyse le rôle de l’Union européenne et des mécanismes d’européanisation. Il traite des rapports entre le politique, la justice, les médias et la société civile et de leurs interactions avec les milieux européens. Il s’intéresse à la formation des communautés de politiques publiques, à l’activisme des uns et à l’immobilisme des autres. L’ouvrage se veut un travail de déconstruction des mythes relatifs à l’influence de l’Union européenne et une application est-européenne des approches cognitives des politiques publiques. Qu’il soit citoyen, expert, étudiant, homme politique ou scientifique, le livre offre au lecteur un ensemble de pistes d’analyse susceptibles de lui faire mieux comprendre la question de l’indépendance de la justice inscrite à l’agenda politique dans nombre de pays européens.

“The authors demonstrate that the Council of the European Union, though imperfect and undoubtedly impervious to reform, manages to strike a balance between national interests and the need for supranational action.” -Jean-Paul Jacqué, Honorary Director General, Council of the EU, Emeritus Professor of EU Law at the University of Strasbourg, France “EU Council Presidencies in Times of Crises is a highly topical and welcome publication and merits the attention of all those who want to understand the EU.” -Jim Cloos, TEPSA Secretary-General, Former Senior EU Civil Servant “EU Council Presidencies in Times of Crisis is required reading for anyone interested in European institutions.” -Sabine Saurugger, Professor of Political Science, Director of Sciences Po Grenoble, France The Council of the EU is a powerful institution whose centrality has been challenged by the Treaty of Lisbon. More than ten years after this major institutional revision, this book examines its role within the EU political regime and its interactions with other institutions. It explores how the Council Presidency has navigated major crises over the past decade and addressed internal challenges. The various chapters discuss key timely questions: How has the relationship between the Council and the European Council evolved over time? To what extent have the recent crises reshaped the relationship between the Council and the European Parliament, as well as its interactions with the Commission? Is the Council Presidency still a powerful mediator? What are its internal challenges? What are the prospects for the rotating presidency system?

This book examines recent developments in political science research. What are the new influences to which the discipline opens itself up? Is political science research converging towards a single model or splitting into different streams? What are the new challenges at the beginning of the 21st century? By addressing these questions, this collection of essays discusses three interrelated topics: the relationship between political science and the problems of politics, the relationship between political science and other fields of research, and the transformation of the profession. In so doing, this volume traces the major trends in contemporary political science research since the end of the Cold War. As part of this approach, the authors rely on the academic journals as a field of investigation. Each of the eight chapters focuses on a different journal, including the American Political Science Review, West European Politics, the British Political Science Review, Security Dialogue, the Journal of Common Market Studies, International Security, Electoral Studies and the Revue française de science politique
