Quantum leaps in European integration

Barry Eichengreen

Chapter 2 in The EU Reexamined, 2024, pp 22-38 from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: This chapter considers, from historical, analytical and empirical perspectives, the circumstances under which the European Union has taken sudden, sharp steps in the direction of deeper economic and political unification. The implicit question is whether COVID-19, which prompted NextGenerationEU, and the war in Ukraine, which prompted further energy-market and defence coordination, will have this effect. The answer is, at this point, uncertain.
