Description of Ever Closer Union, 3rd edition |
Ever Closer Union is a uniquely comprehensive and genuinely interdisciplinary introduction to the history and political development of the European Union, its institutions and key policies and the main challenges it faces in the twenty-first century. Fully revised and updated throughout, to take account of enlargement and the development of the new EU Constitution the book retains the exceptionally accessible and lively style which previous editions so successful and popular.
