Description: This book offers an authoritative overview of the topical issues surrounding intra-industry trade in the era of European economic integration. It brings together expert contributors from ten European Union member states. The theory of intra-industry trade is discussed and assessed through a comprehensive study of the patterns of trade in the European Union over a thirty-year period.

This detailed empirical analysis allows conclusions to be drawn on the continuing process of industrial adjustment and specialisation in EU economies. The book arises from a major multinational programme coordinated from the University of Nottingham.
