What the EU is for -- How the EU was made -- How the EU is governed -- Single market, single currency -- Agriculture, regions, budget: conflicts over who gets what -- Social policy, environmental policy -- "An area of freedom, security, and justice" -- A great civilian power ... and more, or less? -- The EU and the rest of Europe -- The EU in the world -- Much accomplished ... but what next?
Fully updated to include the Lisbon treaty, the EU fiscal crisis, and the state of the Euro currency, this accessible 'Very Short Introduction' shows how and why the EU has developed, how its institutions works, and what it does - from the single market to the Euro, and from agriculture to peace-keeping and the environment.
