The governance of European public goods: towards a republican paradigm of European integration

Collignon, Stefan

Collignon, Stefan

Abstract

This book proposes an innovative approach to European Integration by combining economics and political theory in its study of public goods. The contributors review such elements as a neo-medieval governance, the merits of a new European Republic, and, alongside Europe, include South East Asia in its discussions. By addressing different issues within the overarching approach of public goods and the republican paradigm of governance, the book introduces an important new perspective. Chapters stimulate discussion on some of the most pressing issues facing Europe today, written by the leading voices on European economics.
