September 29, 2016
book cover

Andreea Nastase’s book “Public Ethics at the European Commission: Politics, Reform and Individual Views” (Routledge, 2016) investigates how Commission officials think about questions of integrity and ethical behaviour in public office.  With a focus on the administrative services, it demonstrates that the Commission has practiced ethics regulation as a form of reputation management, where the purpose has been to handle public perceptions and strengthen itself against increasingly aggressive scrutiny from the European Parliament, the press, and watchdog-type NGOs.
