Description: "Europe Recast tells the story of European integration from its modern origins in the 1940s to the challenges of the new century." "Dinan captures the dynamics of the evolving debates about European unity. Examining the factors and forces that led to today's union, he brings ideas, interests, and actors to life. He has written a book that, combining an authoritative treatment of the subject and an engaging style, is an essential guide to unraveling the complexity of the EU system in the context of modern European history."--BOOK JACKET.
