Federalism and European Union: fin de siecle.A revisionist interpretation of the post-war evolution of European integration and the European Union (EU), this book reappraises and reassesses conventional explanations of European integration. It adopts a federalist approach which supplements state-based arguments with federal political ideas, influences and strategies. By exploring the philosophical and historical origins of federal ideas and tracing their influence throughout the whole of the EU's evolution, the book makes a significant contribution to the scholarly debate about the nature and development of the EU.The book looks at Federal governmentEuropean Union countriesEuropean federationHistory20th centuryNation-stateFederal governmentEuropean federationHistoryNation-state.341.242/2/09341.242209Burgess Michael1949-1701213MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910820517203321Federalism and European union4184898UNINA
