| Summary |
In this text Miroslav N. Jovanovic argues that economic integration in Europe is not a lost cause and provides a thorough analysis of the complex issues involved. All the main policy areas are examined in detail, with the political and legal dimensions of European Union involvement and issues such as competition highlighted. Other, less well known policy areas, such as social policy, environmental policy and transport policy, are also examined. Concluding with a look at future possibilities for economic integration, the author argues that only a solution ensuring 'unity with diversity' can guarantee success. Containing an excellent blend of theory and practice and presenting a highly complex issue in an accessible and non-technical way, this text will be an invaluable resource for students of international economics, international business, and European studies |
