Changing Tides: Geopolitics and Global Trade Blocs.This book explores economic developments across Europe in relation to its apparent segmentation, as disparities widen between core and periphery countries. In contrast to previous literature, the scope of analysis is extended to Europe as a continent rather than confining it solely to the European Union, thereby providing the reader with greater insight into the core/periphery nexus. The authors commence with a critical appraisal of economic thinking in relation to regional trade agreements and monetary integration. In relation to a number of EU economies, the book addresses issues of a liquidity trap, deflation, and twin deficits, together with the interconnection between exchange rates and current account balances. Importantly, they extend the discussion of segmentation through a series of focused case studies on Russia, Brexit and emergence of the mega-regionals.European Economic Community literatureEconomic policySocial policyEuropean Integrationhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W33010European Union Politicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911140European Economicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W45030Economic Policyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W34010Social Policyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W34020European Union countriesEuropeEconomic conditonsEuropean Union countriesEconomic conditions1945-European Economic Community literature.Economic policy.Social policy.European Integration.European Union Politics.European Economics.Economic Policy.Social Policy.337.142Baimbridge Markauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut146876Litsios Ioannisauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autJackson Karenauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autLee Uih Ranauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autBOOK9910255035903321The Segmentation of Europe2262522UNINA
