European Integration, Processes of Change and the National Experience Reviews

The political crisis in Europe is forcing an expanded vision of the field of EU studies in which the relation of polity building to underlying social forces is re-examined. Drawing together a first class set of authors, this volume establishes new resources for answering difficult questions about the confused past, contested present, and possible futures of the European Union.
