Since 2007 the European Union and the euro have, to put it mildly, been struggling. The EU seems to have lost its competitiveness against the United States and emerging countries. The eurozone crisis has turned into a succession of country crises ebbing and flowing like the tide, threatening to poison the entire eurozone and jeopardising world economic growth. The European Union After the Euro Crisis examines this period of turmoil, putting it into a larger historical, institutional and economic context and outlining the efforts of the EU and its Member States to escape economic and financial meltdown.
