History's most frightening migration crisis shocked Europe and led to the strengthening of several anti-integration parties in various countries. This pioneering book discusses the nine crisis elements that may lead to disintegration of the EU. Beginning with the Greek Debt disaster this book delves into the cause of the recent European crisis and then onto the recent immigration influx and its consequences, as well as the possibility of Britain's exit from the Union. A concluding chapter, based on the facts of positive development during the crises years, gives a cautiously optimistic forecast for the future. 410 0$aRoutledge studies in the European economy. 606 $aEquality$zEuropean Union countries 606 $aNational security$zEuropean Union countries 607 $aEuropean Union countries$xEconomic conditions$y21st century 607 $aEurope$xEconomic integration 607 $aEuropean Union countries$xPopulation$xEconomic aspects 607 $aEuropean Union countries$xEconomic policy$y21st century 615 0$aEquality 615 0$aNational security 676 $a341.242/2 700 $aBerend$b T.
