Description
Giandomenico Majone’s “Rethinking the Union of Europe Post-Crisis” offers a critical analysis of European integration following the financial crisis. The author argues that the EU may have expanded beyond its functional capacity, creating institutional imbalances and governance challenges. Majone examines the tension between economic integration and political fragmentation, questioning whether deeper union remains viable or desirable. He analyzes the crisis’s impact on member states’ sovereignty and the effectiveness of supranational institutions. The book addresses key debates about federalism, subsidiarity, and the limits of integration. Majone contends that integration’s success depends on maintaining proportionality between economic and political union. He offers a nuanced perspective on whether the EU should pursue further centralization or recalibrate its institutional framework.
