Chapter 1 in The Past, Present and Future of the European Union, 2004, pp 1-5 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract This volume collects the best of those papers dealing with the European Union that were presented at the Thirteenth Congress of the International Economic Association held in Lisbon in September 2002. Chapter 2 is the address to the Congress by Romano Prodi, President of the European Commission, who sets the tone for the other contributions by describing and evaluating two of the greatest past and future accomplishments of the EU: economic and monetary union (EMU), and the forthcoming enlargement of the EU to include ten more countries from Central and Eastern Europe. Other authors deal in detail with various aspects of these and other issues, using a mixture of theoretical, empirical, and other tools.
