The argument over the EU’s reform treaty is over – at least between its political leaders. Now the spotlight moves away from institutions and back towards the policies, outputs and ‘deliverables’ on which the EU’s legitimacy depends.

Following on the success of the award-winning EU: the Next Fifty Years, EU : Policies and Priorities will set out the issues at the top of the EU’s ‘must do’ list – and the instruments for dealing with them.

European Union: policies and priorities 2008, edited by Maurice Fraser of the LSE European Institute and published by FT Business with Agora Projects, in association with LSE, is a comprehensive survey of the EU's short to medium-term policy agenda. It includes forewords by the Slovenian prime minister, EU Commission president Jose Manuel Barroso and Ernest-Antoine Seilliere of BusinessEurope, and articles by EU commissioners, the president of the European Parliament, academic experts, leading FT journalists and French ministers looking forward to France's EU Presidency.
