The State of the European Union
Against the backdrop of combating the financial and economic crisis in the European Union for the past decade, this volume strives to explore the manifold impacts the prevailing crisis management has on the further alignment of European Integration.

Taking into account current developments in the EU, the contributions presented in this volume focus on the ‘fault lines’ in the integration proc...
