This new book provides a comprehensive analysis of Europe on the
brink of political disintegration. Observers of the European Union
(EU) could be forgiven for thinking that it is in a state of
permanent crisis. The Union has been beset with high levels of
Eurozone debt, Russian intervention and armed conflict in Ukraine,
refugees fleeing conflict zones in North Africa and the Middle
East, and the decision of Britain to leave the European Union. This
text offers a concise and readable assessment of the dynamics,
character and consequences of these four crises and the
increasingly real possibility of European disintegration. High
levels of socio-economic interdependence and institutionalization
have failed to result in an ever closer union, and yet the proposed
theories of disintegration also fall short. Webber instead shows
that it is only by looking at the role of the EU's dominant member,
Germany, in each crisis that the potential for an increasingly
fragmented Europe becomes clear. Until now, Germany has been the
EU's stabilizing force but this is no longer guaranteed. The fate
of the integration process will depend on whether other, more
inclusive forms of stabilizing leadership may emerge to fill the
vacuum created by Berlin's incapacity. This text is the ideal
companion for upper undergraduate and postgraduate students of the
European Union, as part of degrees in politics, international
relations or European studies, or for anyone interested in the
crises of the European Union.
