Paperback. Condition: Good. The European Community ? A Guide to the Maze (1992) ? Stanley A. Budd & Alun Jones Kogan Page ? ISBN: 9780749403102 ? Condition: Good Euro-bureaucratic, gently worn, from Crappy Old Books Ever looked at the European Community and thought, ?This feels like a labyrinth designed by committee?? Good news: in 1992, two brave souls?Stanley A. Budd and Alun Jones?attempted to map it . The European Community ? A Guide to the Maze is exactly what it says it is: a handbook to help reasonably sane people navigate the gloriously convoluted world of pre-Maastricht European integration. Think of it as a tourist guide to a political theme park where every ride is sponsored by a committee and comes with an acronym. This is from back when it was still the European Community , not yet the full-blown EU we know and argue about today. Simpler times. Well. Marginally. Condition: Good (like a well-used passport, not a pristine treaty draft) When Crappy Old Books says Good , we mean: The cover is intact and attached, not peeling like an unloved directive The spine may show a modest crease or two: evidence of previous efforts to understand how on earth the Council, Commission, and Parliament fit together without exploding All pages present, firmly bound?no missing diagrams, no vanishing explanation of qualified majority voting, no ripped-out section on agricultural policy (tempting though that might have been) Light, respectable wear: slightly softened corners, maybe a faint thumb-smudge or two?proof that this book has survived at least one encounter with a student, civil servant, or very lost journalist No fluorescent highlighter massacres, no passive-aggressive margin notes like ?THIS MAKES NO SENSE,? and no coffee stains shaped like the map of Europe. Just a tidy, Good condition guide with a bit of character. What?s actually in the maze Inside, you?ll find: Diagrams, structures, and explanations of who does what, where, and with whose money Walkthroughs of the main institutions: Commission, Council, Parliament, Court of Justice and the rest of the acronym army Attempts to explain decision-making processes that appear to have been designed by someone who lost a bet with logic Context on policies, treaties, and the overall philosophy of ?ever closer union? back when that phrase was still mostly an aspiration and not a national newspaper panic generator It?s 1992, so expect: References to the Single Market as an exciting future (or terrifying, depending on your politics) A Community of twelve members, not the supersized ?hope you brought a bigger table? version Cheerfully earnest infographics trying to make institutional complexity look fun and approachable It?s the sort of book that tries very hard to reassure you that yes, there is a system, even if it occasionally resembles a filing cabinet falling down a staircase. Why this is brilliant to own now In the post-referendum era, this book doubles as: A historical artefact from the days when people mostly argued about the price of butter and farm subsidies rather than sovereignty on breakfast TV A reminder that Europe was already quite complicated before things got? more so A surprisingly charming introduction to the building blocks that later turned into everyone?s favourite geopolitical talking point It?s ideal if you: Always meant to understand the EC but got distracted sometime around ?Article 100? Enjoy retro policy diagrams and timelines that stop just before everything really kicked off Want to sound unnervingly knowledgeable in pubs when people start sentences with ?The thing about Brussels is?? Why a Good, used copy is peak authenticity A mint, untouched copy of A Guide to the Maze would feel suspiciously like a staged press photo. From Crappy Old Books , this Good copy: Already looks like it?s survived one round of baffled consultation Frees you from the need to handle it like a fragile treaty?flip through it at your desk, fold a corner, leave it open on the table while you fetch more tea Carries the quiet dignity of a veteran reference book: once actually used, not simply shelved under ?aspirations? This is not a coffee-table ornament. It?s a working map of a political labyrinth, preserved from an era of bigger hair, smaller memberships, and very earnest diagrams. Ideal for readers who: Secretly love institutional diagrams and organisational charts Collect political ephemera and mid-90s policy nostalgia Want to understand what on earth everyone was talking about back when ?EC? wasn?t a typo for ?EU? Are writing essays, novels, policies, rants, or stand-up routines involving Brussels and need period-accurate jargon Also suitable for: Recovering politics students Civil servants with a sense of humour Anyone who?s looked at the modern EU and thought, ?Surely it didn?t start this complicated?? (Spoiler: it started quite complicated.) Recommended reading environment Best enjoyed: With a biro and a notebook, even if you?re only pretending to make sense of it On a train, so people can glance over and quietly assume you?re dangerously well-informed In a mood somewhere between ?mildly curious? and ?I can?t believe this was someone?s actual job? Side effects may include: Respect for anyone who can keep all the institutions straight without a flowchart A nostalgic pang for a time when ?the Maastricht Treaty? was peak controversy The urge to explain subsidiarity at parties (please don?t) The official line Title: The European Community ? A Guide to the Maze Authors: Stanley A. Budd & Alun Jones Publisher: Kogan Page (1992) ISBN: 9780749403102 Condition: Good ? lightly used, structurally solid, bureaucratically dense The European Community ? A Guide to the Maze : for when you?d like to stroll calmly into the heart of European bureaucracy armed with a 1992 map, a sense of irony, and a paperback that?s already done at least one tour of duty. Supplied in honestly Good condition by Crappy Old Books , specialists in volumes that make you say, ?Someone wrote all this dow.

Couverture souple. Condition: Très bon. Grand in-8° broché. C est certainement une des plus grandes revues de cinema de la fin du XXeme siecle. La revue Trafic s'est éteinte, après 30 ans d'existence et 120 numéros. Fondée en 1991 par Serge Daney, quelques mois avant sa mort, et Jean-Claude Biette, elle était reconnaissable grâce à sa couverture en papier Kraft et son absence totale d'illustrations. L'omniprésence du texte et la qualité de son comité de rédaction - parmi lesquels Raymond Bellour, Sylvie Pierre, Patrice Rollet ou encore Marcos Uzal qui a rejoint la revue en 2016 - en ont fait une référence en matière de réflexion critique et de pensée sur le cinéma.En plus du comité fixe, la revue est assortie d'un conseil de rédaction, comprenant en 2020 Jacques Bontemps, Leslie Kaplan, Pierre Léon, Jacques Rancière, Jonathan Rosenbaum, Jean Louis Schefer et Marcos Uzal. - - - - Large in-8° paperback.
