It introduces a framework grounded in institutionalism, drawing from semi-presidentialism, public administration, political leadership, and foreign policy analysis. Through case studies of Lithuania, Romania, and Finland, the authors aim to uncover institutional solutions that enhance collaboration and effective governance amidst the political challenges faced by these countries.

By exploring their involvement in constitutional reforms and broader political discussions, the book reveals the significant impact Europarties have had on shaping Europe's trajectory, a perspective often overlooked in previous studies.
