The Economics of Europe and the European Union by Larry Neal (PDF)

Description

This distinctive textbook combines comprehensive coverage of the key policy areas of the European Union with analysis of individual countries, including the recent accession countries and Turkey. Part I analyzes the economic bases for the rise of the European Union from its origins in the post-World War II recovery to its historic enlargement in 2004. Part II takes up the different nation-state perspectives on the EU’s economic policies by looking in turn at all European countries, whether members of the EU or not. The book is unique in providing both an EU perspective and European nation-state perspective on the major policy issues which have arisen since the end of World War II, as well as putting the economic analysis into an historical narrative which emphasizes the responses of policy-makers to external shocks such as the Cold War, the oil shocks, German reunification, and the collapse of the Soviet Union.

User’s Reviews

Editorial Reviews: Review ‘Any student venturing to Europe for the first time should go in the company of Rick Steves and Larry Neal. Where Steves’ guides provide an entertaining introduction to the main tourist sites, Neal’s book offers an accessible analysis of Europe’s major economies and institutions. Particularly valuable are Neal’s historical walking tours, where he shows how powerfully Europe’s history continues to influence its economic arrangements and performance. Highly recommended for the first-time visitor.’ Barry Eichengreen, University of California, Berkeley’The author gives more than one analysis of Europe and the European Union, because he balances an insider’s perspective with an American view on European economic structures. This makes this textbook indispensable for both the European and the non-European instructor and student.’ Gregor van der Beek, University of Koblenz-Landau Book Description An EU and European nation-state perspective on the major policy issues in Europe since 1945. About the Author Larry Neal is a Research Associate at NBER and Professor Emeritus of Economics at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Read more
