Draws on a range of expert contributors to provide an economic analysis of the European Union. This book is intended for those studying the policies and institutions which shape the European Union.

Recenzje

This book provides a clear analytical framework to understand developments within the EU, not just a description of EU policies. Chapters 5, 9, 12, 13 and 14 are all particularly strong in this regard.
