      abstract = {The book provides an in-depth analysis of Eurosceptics'  strategies in the European Parliament. It explores the  paradoxical situation of Eurosceptic MEPs: particularly  successful during EP elections, how then, once elected, do  they operate in a political system they oppose? This book  analyses how Eurosceptic MEPs conceive and carry out their  mandate within the institution. On the basis of more than  100 interviews, it proposes a typology of four strategies  developed by these actors. It also explains the diversity  of Eurosceptics' strategies, showing the relevance of the  interaction between the institutional context and the  individuals' preferences. With the growing success of  Eurosceptic parties and the challenges they pose to the  future of integration, this study also reflects on the  consequences of their presence for the EP and for the  legitimacy of the EU. This book will be of interest to  students and scholars of European politics, European  integration, comparative politics, legislative studies and  political parties.},
