Description
The aim of this book is to introduce readers to the economics of integration and of the European Union. Its approach is rigorous but at the same time accessible to non-specialists. Only a basic background knowledge of economics is assumed, and this is built on in the chapters to enable the reader to understand the nature and functioning of the EU. Key issues include:
- the relationship between economic, political and monetary integration
- agriculture and industry
- the enlargement process
- the EU in the global context and its relationship with US and Asian economies
The book will appeal to a wide readership, not just within economics, but within business and management degrees, as well as politics and international relations. It is laced with a wealth of interior features and real world case studies as well as being accompanied by a supporting website.
