This book charts the transformative effect of the nature of the EUs direct response to the Ukraine war.
The war in Ukraine has proved to be a pivotal moment for the EU. The EU, with its foundation of a unique peace project, born out of two world wars, has been transformed by this crisis. Taking a three-part approach, this book looks at its constitutional impact, its substantive impact, and finally how its institutions have responded. It shows how, in contrast to more recent crises, the EU has been purposeful and unified, charting a return to the Community method. Drawing on expert contributions, this is a masterful exploration of how the EU is changed by crises.
