Abstract: This paper is going to argue that economic integration is a distinct phenomenon from political integration and that the latter can only impede the first. Because political integration reduces the stringencies that constrain the actions of political entrepreneurs, it should be seen as representing a factor that acts against economic integration, not one that is conducive to it.
