The impact of the enlargement of the EU and the prospects for further enlargement and for closer political integration

The Guide to the European Union is well-established as the clearest and most comprehensive guide to how the EU operates. This new edition brings you up to date at a crucial stage in its development following parliamentary elections and a new Commission taking over in 2009 and the ratification of the Lisbon Treaty.
