The Economics of European Integration, 2/e provides students
with an accessible presentation of the facts, theories and controversies
driving rapid change in the heart of Europe. The authors
combine essential elements of European history, institutions,
law, politics and policies with clear and accessible explanations
of the economic principles of European integration. The result
is an expert analysis of the contemporary status of integration
within the European Union. This second edition has been thoroughly
updated and expanded to incorporate recent developments
within the European Union, and to reflect current teaching
in European Economics. New material in this edition includes
coverage of economic integration, labour markets and migration;
EU competition and state aid policy; and EU trade policy.
Designed for students taking modules in European economics,
the book offers a rigorous yet clear exposition of economic
arguments alongside examples, illustrations, and questions that
bring this contemporary topic to life.

Policies, including new chapters dedicated to Regional Policy, EU
