European Union and Global Capitalism [PDF ebook] 
Origins, Development, Crisis

This book draws on critical theory to introduce readers to ways of exploring questions about the EU from a political economy perspective, questions like: -Does the EU help or hinder Europe’s 'social models’ to face the challenges of globalization? – Does the EU represent a break from Europe’s imperial past? – What were the causes of the Eurozone crisis?
