Focusing on the construction and deconstruction of the European civil service, this book presents a series of case studies that challenge typical portrayals of 'Eurocrats.' It highlights a hidden crisis of social reproduction within the civil service, exacerbated by management reforms, institutional changes, and the euro crisis. The analysis uncovers internal tensions and power dynamics, ultimately questioning the EU's ability to reconcile diverse national and economic interests while shaping a cohesive European future.
