The Politics of Crisis in Europe explores the resilience of the
European Union in the face of repeated crises perceived to threaten
its very existence. While it is often observed after the fact that
these crises serve as opportunities for integration, this is the
first critical analysis to suggest that we cannot fully understand
the nature and severity of these crises without recognising the
role of societal reaction to events and the nature of social
narratives about crisis, especially those advanced by the media.
Through a close examination of the 2003 Iraq crisis, the 2005
constitutional crisis, and the 2010-12 Eurozone crisis, this book
identifies a pattern across these episodes, demonstrating how
narratives about crises provide the means to openly air underlying
societal tensions that would otherwise remain under the surface,
impeding further integration.
