Europe is one of the most dynamic and interesting areas of the
world, pioneering in the European Union a new form of governance
for half a billion people, represented in the world's first
directly elected transnational parliament. This book situates the
European Union in a broader European, global, historical and
geographical context, providing a readable presentation of the most
important facts and drawing on the theoretical approaches which
have transformed the study of contemporary Europe over the past two
decades. The European Union is still on the road to what has been
called 'an unknown destination', and this book presents its
economic, political, legal and social trajectory from the middle of
the last century to the present. Contemporary Europe covers some of
these issues in an interdisciplinary framework, aiming to situate
the development of the European Union in a broader context of
pan-European and global processes. Europe has been cut down to
size, but it does not have to become a global backwater, and the
study of contemporary Europe's institutional reality does not have
to be boring The book counter this misperception, conveying the
essential facts and theories of contemporary European reality in a
clear and approachable analysis. It will serve as a readable
introduction both to the academic field of European studies and to
contemporary Europe itself.
