Publisher's Synopsis
European Economic Law presents a thoroughgoing legal analysis of the prominence of corporate and business enterprises in what many theorists see as the intrinsic 'internationality' of social activity in the current era. In the course of its intensive discussion, the book disentangles the complex interrelations among a vast array of economic factors. Since the last edition of this work five years ago, the European framework in the international setting has substantially changed. Numerous critical developments have highlighted shortcomings in the European structure that seems incapable, in its present complexity, of resolving the apparently intractable problems it confronts. This book's author is uncompromising: either we have the courage to establish profound, constitutional reforms aimed at renewing the EU in the collective imagination or we risk contenting ourselves with merely an economic community with a far-from-ideal single market
