About the work
An Historical Introduction to the European Union (ISBN 9780415171076) stands as a foundational survey of Europe’s political evolution from its early postwar experiments to the mature, integrated system we recognize today. Philip Thody offers a clear, accessible narrative that situates institutional development, policy formation, and the shifting dynamics of member states within broader social and economic contexts.
Summary
The book traces the origins of the European Union, charting key milestones, debates, and turning points that shaped its structure and governance. It examines the creation of supranational institutions, the expansion of membership, and the ongoing challenges of unity, integration, and sovereignty, all while connecting historical events to contemporary policy outcomes. Through concise analysis and thoughtful synthesis, it reveals how ideas about democracy, market liberalization, and collective security have coalesced into the EU we know today.

In brief
