The European Commission is arguably the world's most powerful international administration. It plays a central role in the political system of the European Union. The Commission is a permanent presence in the life of the member states, but its influence is felt far beyond their borders. Viewed historically as the motor of European integration, the Commission is the subject of intense controversy. It is portrayed frequently as technocratic, monolithic, and unaccountable, but also as fragmented and weakly led. According to accepted wisdom, it is populated by career bureaucrats, who want only to expand the competencies of the Union and therefore their own power. This book tests these views. It asks: Who are the people who work for the organization? What are their educational and professional backgrounds? What do officials believe about the role of the Commission in the EU today and whether the Union should have more or less power? What leads them to choose to pursue a career in the Commission, and how do they navigate its complexities? How does the Barroso Commission compare to previous Commissions? How harmonious are relations between cabinets and the services? What has been the impact on the Commission of reform and of the 'big bang' enlargement? Co-authored by an international team of researchers, this book draws on original data from the largest attitudinal survey ever conducted by independent researchers inside the Commission, as well as a structured programme of interviews with senior officials. It provides an authoritative account of the European Commission of the twenty-first century.

Theorizing Nationalism

Theorizing Nationalism provides a comprehensive and accessible review of the main theoretical approaches to understanding nations, nationalism and national identities. Its systematic and clearly structured approach makes it an ideal purchase for undergraduate students of Sociology, Politics and International Relations. Well illustrated with a variety of international examples, it gives a detailed insight into the contributions of key social theorists, including Anderson, Billig, Gellner, Hobshawn and Smith. It shows how the analysis of nationalism is linked to contemporary studies of gender, 'race' and ethnicity and it gives due consideration to important recent developments in the field, including liberal nationalism, globalization and the formation of national identities. Throughout the book, the authors place developments in the study of nationalism in the context of wider changes taking place in social theory, and show how shifting theoretical perspectives pose new questions about the meaning and importance of nations and nationalism. This is a balanced and wide-ranging text that opens up debates in a clear and helpful manner for students who are new to the field.

Loch-Durnan, a forested town shrouded in mist. It is a town with closely guarded secrets; a town in trouble. Goblins have occupied the caverns of the pit, a hidden gold mine that makes the small town prosperous. Injured in a raid on the goblins, the town’s twin brother mayors seek adventurers to do what they cannot. Stalwart heroes are sought after to go into the mine and drive the goblins back whence they came. Seems easy enough for a band of adventurers, but not all is as it seems in the sleepy, mist- shrouded town. The mine is not their only secret. This massive adventure from Mystic Eye Games is great for any d20 fantasy setting. It is ideal for 4-6 characters ranging from 2nd to 4th level. Immerse yourself in a plot of intrigue, betrayal, and murder while trying to help a small town rid its mine of evil goblins and more. Can your band of adventurers help the small town or will they die in the dark caverns of the pit?
