Krisengeprüftes Europa

The European Union's integration project has not progressed much beyond its economic successes, and the original idea of a political union has receded significantly following the crises of the past decade. With Russia's war of aggression against Ukraine, a new crisis has emerged that presents Europe with enormous internal and external challenges, necessitating a reassessment of the geopolitical and economic conditions of the European Union. For the second edition, the content has been revised and updated accordingly. New are the two chapters on the Ukraine war and its impact on the European Union's efforts to address the energy crisis and climate change.
