Here we find 19 essays written by 25 scholars who examine the
different aspects of the EU: its external policies, its
institutions, its political economy, its culture and identity, and
the effects of its activities on relations between Europe and the
United States. The comparisons with the United States are thought
provoking and point out not only the sharpened policy and cultural
differences of the past few years but also how far the EU remains
from being a true European Nation. This fine volume is like an MRI
of a currently sleeping patient.
