The European Union: A Very Short IntroductionThe European Union (EU) stands out as a fascinatingly unique political organization. On the one hand, it has shown the potential for developing deep and wide ranging cooperation between member states, going far beyond that found anywhere else in the world. On the other, it is currently in the throes of a phase of profound uncertainty about its viability and future. Showing how and why the EU has developed from 1950 to the present day, this Very Short

The European Union (EU) stands out as a fascinatingly unique political organization. On the one hand, it has shown the potential for developing deep and wide-ranging cooperation between member states, going far beyond that found anywhere else in the world. On the other, it is currently in the throes of a phase of profound uncertainty about its viability and future.

Showing how and why the EU has developed from 1950 to the present day, this Very Short Introduction covers a range of topics, including the Union's early history, the workings of its institutions and what they do, the interplay between "eurosceptics" and federalists, and the role of the Union beyond Europe in international affairs and as a peace-keeper.

In this fully updated fourth edition, Pinder and Usherwood cover the migrant crisis and the UK's decision to leave the Union, set in the context of a body that is now involved in most areas of public policy. Discussing how the EU continues to draw in new members, they conclude by considering the future of the Union and the choices and challenges that may lie ahead.

Great quality and perfect fit
Size: Medium, Color: Dark Gray, Size: Medium, Color: Dark Gray
Perfect prom suit! My son wore this to his senior prom and it fit him perfectly right out of the package. True to size, great quality, and looked very expensive for such a reasonable price. We were extremely happy with this purchase and would definitely buy again.

Impressive Quality for the Price
Size: Medium, Color: Navy Blue
Wow this suit exceeded my expectations! The sizing chart was accurate and the fit was great. The material felt soft, smooth, and surprisingly high quality it honestly felt much more expensive than the price we paid. I also liked the ample amount of pockets inside the blazer. Overall, a great value and perfect for a polished look without spending a lot. Highly recommend!

Very nice well made suit
Size: X-Small, Color: Black
This is a very nice suit. Well made, from good material. I was so surprised based on the price I didn't expect such a great quality. It fits my son very well, he is very slim. Real value for money as it looks much more expensive that the price I paid for it.
