Terms, time budgets and time horizons of collective and individual political actors; rights over timing, sequencing and speed in decision-making; and the temporal properties of policy matter to the distribution of power; efficiency and effectiveness of policy-making; and democratic legitimacy. This book makes a case for the systematic study of political time in the European Union (EU) - both as an independent and a dependent variable - and highlights the analytical value-added of a time-centred analysis. The book discusses previous scholarship on the institutionalization of political time and its consequences along the dimensions of polity, politics and policy; reviews dominant perspectives on political time, which centre on power, system performance and legitimacy; and presents case studies that illustrate the importance of time in the governance of the EU. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book was original published as a special issue of \u003cem\u003eJournal of European Public Policy.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45238215016599,"sku":"9781138117297","price":2036.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781138117297.webp?v=1769219010","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/the-eu-timescape-9781138117297","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
