Indeed, so far has it departed that it could be described as having entered a new reality. The original reality was that captured in the evocative phrase in its founding agreement, the treaty of Rome, that it should be an 'ever-closer union of people'. Largely, that was the path followed until the 1990s, but by the early twenty-first century there were signs that it is turning into an ordinary international organization in which there was little overriding sense of purpose. This book discusses the indications of this development, and explains why it happened only a decade or so after a peak of popular enthuasiasm in the early 1990s. The End of European Integration will be of interest to all those with an interest in European integration, wether for or againts. It will also interest students of European studies, European politics, and politics and international relations in general. 4aCentral-Local government relation-European Union Countries 4aEuropean federation a10510/MKRI-P/XI-2008 a10511/MKRI-P/XI-2008 a10511/MKRI-P/XI-2008 a10510/MKRI-P/XI-2008 a10510/MKRI-P/XI-2008 a10511/MKRI-P/XI-2008
