- Examination of the current extent of economic integration helps answer the central question of whether it is more useful to view the European Union countries as a set of individual economies or to regard them as forming parts of one larger economy
- Expert contributions on all major aspects of European economic integration provide an ideal non-technical introduction to this complex and highly topical theme
- Presentation of a detailed and up to date bedrock of factual information alongside the core concepts of integration theory provides the reader with a picture of both the theory and the practice of European economic integration
European Integration introduces the reader to the practical economic issues lying at the heart of economic integration in Europe. It examines the extent to which economic development in the European Union is tending towards further integration and seeks to answer the question: is it still more useful to view the European Union countries as a set of individual economies or to regard them as forming parts of one larger economy?
The book presents a solid and up to
date bedrock of factual information regarding all the major areas of European integration and also introduces the core concepts of European integration theory. As such it provides an ideal introduction to the current state of economic integration in the European Union, written from a European rather than an American perspective. Each chapter is written by an expert in the field and together the chapters deal with all the major aspects of European economic integration, including trade, economic growth, demographics, labour markets, industrial structures, foreign direct investment, monetary integration and eastern enlargement. The final chapter then summarizes the conclusions of the previous chapters and discusses how far the economies of the EU countries have developed into one
European economy.Readership: First and second year students of Economics, doing modules in European Economics.
