The aim of this book is not to provide an analysis of the factors that contributed to the EPP's political prevalence. Instead, it is to help this large political family maintain its vigour of political thought and policy prescriptions. The book provides a forum for prominent centre-right thinkers to debate the major European problems of our times, with particular emphasis on the management of the financial crisis and the next institutional steps regard Notes Joint publication of the Centre for European Studies and the Constantinos Karamanlis Institute for Democracy Bibliography Includes bibliographical references and index Notes Print version record Subject European People's Party -- Influence European Union -- Reform European People's Party European Union Political parties -- European Union countries Free enterprise -- European Union countries Social ethics -- European Union countries POLITICAL SCIENCE -- Government -- International.
