Author Description

Product Description This book integrates economic analysis, political logic, and historical interpretation to convey an American perspective on the movement towards European integration, the external constraints integration faces, and the interplay of national concerns, both economic and political, within the vision of a united Europe. The book includes a discussion of the future of the European Union in an evolving world economy. Review "A new market has emerged recently for executives in companies merging with or being purchased by a European firm....While many of these individuals will have strong business backgrounds, they will not have a similar depth of information on the individual nations which comprise the European Union. Thus for this growing market segment a single text such as the one by Neal and Barbezat will be most welcome." -- Joseph Rallo, College of Business, Ferris State University
