A propos du livre

Quatrième de couverture

Pelkmans – European Integration: Methods and Economic Analysis, Third edition

'The bible of European economic integration studies.'

Professor Hiromasa Kubo, President of the EU Institute, Kobe University, Japan

‘This text is very well researched and the author displays an excellent knowledge of the EU both at an institutional level and at an economic analysis level.'

Dr Adrian Gourlay, Loughborough University

 

Written by one of Europe’s leading EU economic analysts, this third edition of European Integration has been significantly reorganised in structure, fully revised, and updated to reflect the changes in the European Union over recent years.

The book offers a fundamental discussion and detailed analysis of European integration.  Uniquely, it combines economic analysis with a detailed knowledge of the integration methods employed in the EU. Whilst being academically rigorous and assuming some prior knowledge, it is full of practical examples and case studies, enabling students to bridge the gap between theory and policy practice.

 

Key features

 

• Unique integration of economic theory with EU regulatory and policy framework.

• Non-mathematical treatment of economic theory - which is presented using graphical, non-algebraic tools.

• Innovative analysis of the economics of subsidiarity, EU regulation, the economic constitution of the Union, services market integration and the EU budget.

• Numerous case studies and practical examples included throughout.

 

New to the third edition

 

• Fully updated - now including a more extensive economic analysis of monetary union, the euro, and monetary and fiscal policy in the eurozone.

 

• Updated coverage of the economic and strategic issues of enlargement in the EU-25, soon to be EU-27, and beyond.

• New chapters on ‘The Economics of EU Regulation’ and ‘Assessing the EU Budget’.

• Revised and extended treatment of economic cohesion (convergence and divergence) and EU social policy and reforms.

 

• Updated coverage of the internal market for network industries and the Bolkestein directive on horizontal liberalisation of services, plus a deeper economic analysis of pro-competitive effects of the single market.

• Includes new examples on recent issues, and cases that have been revised and deepened analytically.

Audience

European Integration is an intermediate level text which has been carefully designed to appeal to a wide range of students studying economic integration as part of an economics, business, law or public administration degree.
