The Community’s Redistributive and Development Role and the Southern European Countries

Chapter 9 in Economic Transformation, Democratization and Integration into the European Union, 2001, pp 306-342 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract For most people economic and social cohesion is another elegant expression (of French origin, of course), invented to hide and embellish the transfer of Community funds to the needy member-states, synonymous, to put it bluntly, with ‘buying off’ the poor countries’ concession for the further moves towards integration that the rich member-states decide to pursue.
