Together with Luciano Bardi and Martin Rhodes I organised a special monographic number of the International Political Science Review on EU enlargement. The three of us wrote the introduction ‘Enlarging the European Union: Challenges to and from Central and Eastern Europe’ summarising all the contributions (pp. 227-233). I also wrote a chapter on ‘Preparing for enlargement in the European Union: The tensions between economic and political integration’ pp.291-317.
