A brief history of European union -- The customs union; setting European integration in motion (1957-82) -- Deep integration: creation of the European Union (1982-93) -- Deeper and wider: from Maastricht to Lisbon (1993-2007) -- Post-Lisbon challenges and responses (2007-19) -- The EU in the 2020s.
"Richard Pomfret documents European integration since WWII, showing that today's European Union is the product less of master planning than of responses to political and economic challenges. Nevertheless, the EU emerges as a world-historic achievement in cross-border cooperation, with a bright but challenging future."
