‘The book presents a consistent analysis, characterised by a step-by-step approach, as the various chapters unfold, while their contents have a truly noteworthy substantive consistency. The approach of successive stages of analysis adopted allows readers to locate the main points addressed not only with regard to their substance, but also with regard to their position in the overall examination of the EU Budget as a unique institutional, political, economic, even social instrument of the Union.’
