Book Description: Taylor Francis Ltd, 2007. Paperback. Book Condition: New. 234 x 156 mm. Brand New Book with Free Worldwide Delivery ***** Print on Demand *****. This book provides an innovative examination of the European Union, as it departs from its path of integration. Indeed so far has it departed that it could be described as having entered a new reality. The original reality was that captured in the evocative phrase in its founding agreement, the Treaty of Rome, that it should be an "ever-closer union of peoples." Largely that was the path followed until the 1990s, but by the early twenty-first century there have been signs that it is turning into an ordinary international organization in which there is little overriding sense of purpose. This book discusses the indications of this development and explains why it happened only a decade or so after a peak of popular enthusiasm in the early 1990s. The question was whether the EU would become less important for the member states, as seemed to be the case for the British, or whether the German pattern, in which the EU remained important, would prevail. This book concludes that the former is more likely in part because of problems with the policies of the European Union and its conduct, but more specifically because of the current prevailing political culture in Western Europe.Paul Taylor warns that the current problems are underestimated and that there is the risk of casually throwing away the considerable achievements of the integration process. "The End of European Integration" will be of interest to all those with an interest in European integration, whether for or against. It will also interest students of European studies, European politics, and politics and international relations in general. Bookseller Inventory # AAV9780415431064

Indeed, so far has it departed that it coud be described as having entered a new reaity. The origina reaity was that captured in the evocative phrase in its founding agreement, the Treaty of Rome, that it shoud be an ever-coser union of peopes. Largey that was the path foowed unti the 1990s, but by the eary twenty-first century there have been signs that it is turning into an ordinary internationa organization in which there is itte overriding sense of purpose. This book discusses the indications of this deveopment and expains why it happened ony a decade or so after a peak of popuar enthusiasm in the eary 1990s. The question was whether the EU woud become ess important for the member states, as seemed to be the case for the British, or whether the German pattern, in which the EU remained important, woud prevai. This book concudes that the former is more ikey in part because of probems with the poicies of the European Union and its conduct, but more specificay because of the current prevaiing poitica cuture in Western Europe.

Concusions 'Pau Tayor’s The End of European Integration is one of the new miennium’s most thoughtfu contributions to Europeanist schoarship. He skifuy situates Europeans and the European Union within the unpromising context of eary 21st century word poitics, where insecurities are manifod, poitica eaders are distrusted, faiing institutions resist reform and expressions of ideaism provoke sarcastic rejoinders. By chaenging the popuar and, for some, very inviting notion that Europe wi run the 21st century, Tayor’s persuasive anaysis drives to the concusion that this wi not happen. Tayor’s schoarship is impeccabe, but his findings are provocative and his concusions wi incite serious debate.' - Donad Puchaa, Byrnes Professor of Internationa Studies, University of South Caroina, USA ‘Pau Tayor not ony provides us with a nove and baanced account of the grounds for the present discontent with European Integration but even more unusuay goes beyond this to suggest that the areas of defence and socia poicy provide a potentia patform for further progress.’ - Wiiam E Paterson OBE, University of Birmingham, UK Recommended. Upper-division undergraduate, graduate, and research coections. - CHOICE Pau Tayor is Emeritus Professor of Internationa Reations at the London Schoo of Economics, UK.From 2001 to 2004 he wasDirector of the European Institute at thesame institution.
