Resumen de National opposition parties within the inter-parliamentary conference on stability, economic coordination and governance in the EU
While the institutional dimension of inter-parliamentary cooperation has been the subject of intense research, much less is known about the involvement of partisan actors, and more specifically of members of opposition parties.
