Budgeting for the Future, Building another Europe
Budgeting for the Future, Building another Europe, edited by Sbilanciamoci!, puts forward a critical civil society outlook on the 2007/2013 Financial Perspectives. In order to achieve this goal Sbilanciamoci! decided to create a civil society network, with a European dimension, guaranteeing full expertise on the different topics and issues listed in the Multiannual Financial Framework’s headings. The opening of the book is dedicated to two different approaches concerning the Treaty of Lisbon.
