Description
This course investigates the politics of European integration and disintegration, with a specific focus on the European Union.

What are the trade-offs between "social" and "market" models of integration? What are the impacts of enlargement? What is the future of the Eurozone? Does the E.U. promote regional nationalism, e.g., in Scotland and Catalonia? Why did Britain decide to "leave" the E.U.?
