This volume, dedicated to a leading European studies scholar, seeks to understand the European Union not as an international organization but as a federal system comparable to that of Germany, Canada or the US. It is packed with fresh insights into vital issues of the day, including Europe’s response to the rise of China, the embattled Euro, the challenges to common citizenship, and the machinations of European politicians and bureaucrats. Underneath it all remain the power and interests of Europe’s nation-states.
— Andrew Moravcsik, Professor of Politics and International Affairs, Princeton University
In this book a stellar line-up of scholars make sense of the European Union from a deeply informed comparative perspective. This wide-ranging volume is a fitting tribute to Alberta Sbragia’s pathbreaking contribution to the study of federalism and European integration.
