The segmentation of Europe: Convergence or divergence between core and periphery Palgrave Macmillan (with M. Baimbridge, U. R. Lee and I. Litsios)
Reviews:
"Europhiles will not want to read this profoundly pessimistic book, but they should do so. Its argument that misguided efforts to pull together the disparate nations of Europe are in fact pushing them apart could unfortunately turn out to be true unless European policy-makers find effective solutions to the problems that the book identifies." Adrian Wood, Emeritus Professor of International Development, Oxford University
"A proper understanding of the economics and politics of the European Union and its approach to economic, social and financial policies requires a deep understanding of the divergences that exist between its member states. This superbly written and researched book with its wealth of data and analysis will give the reader a comprehensive understanding of these issues. It is to be highly recommended for students, researchers and policy makers." Professor Keith Pilbeam, City, University of London
