Developments in the European Union 2: Second Edition

Bringing together specially-commissioned chapters by leading authorities and rigorously edited for coherence and accessibility, this all-new replacement for Developments in the European Union provides state-of-the-art coverage of the EU as it expands and reconstitutes itself in the early Twenty-first-century. Ranging broadly across the economic, social, legal and political dimensions of the EU, it assesses both internal changes and external relations and examines in detail key policy areas.
