Reforming the European Union

A revised and updated compendium of the series of Federal Trust papers on the Intergovernmental Conference of the EU. This book describes all the options for the future development of the European Union, assesses progress in the IGC so far, and argues for a new approach towards differentiated integration. Taking a comprehensive look at the problem of Britain's relations with Europe, the study suggests how it might be in the UK national interest to contribute positively to the building of a new Europe by becoming a full member of the federal core, arguing that there are no easy alternatives for the UK.
