The European Union undoubtedly has and continues to face a period of crisis and this book assesses this critical juncture in its history.
It adopts a unique multidisciplinary approach drawing on philosophy, social theory, and law, and focusing on the European institutional framework and EU law on free movement and citizenship. This perspective leads to the conclusion that central to the EUs problems is the non-emergence of a European people. This multifaceted approach also allows the author to suggest how the EU might move positively beyond its current challenges.
This book provides a genuinely fresh and innovative comment on a much-examined question.
Jacopo Martire is Senior Lecturer at the School of Law, University of Bristol, UK.
