The Progressive Potential of the EU

What the EU is, why it matters and how it works, and how the centre-left can use and reform it - the first volume of the new FEPS Primers series offers readers exactly what the title promises: a comprehensive look at the history of the EU, its main policies, institutions, functioning and decision-making structures. It takes a look at areas worthy of reform, lists important centre-left figures in the EU's founding and development, and the most important terms of EU jargon.
