The individual in the economic and monetary union: a study of legal accountab…
The European Union's response to the financial crisis was designed in a way that prevented EU citizens from holding decision-makers accountable. This book reimagines legal accountability by focusing on the citizen, who should be at the centre of the common interest in the EU, with solidarity and equality as guiding principles.

Borderlands : Europe and The Mediterranean Middle East
The book proposes a profound rethink of the complex relationship between Europe—defined here as the European Union and its members—and the states of the Mediterranean Middle East and North Africa (MENA), Europe’s ‘southern neighbours’. These relations are examined through a borderlands prism that conceives of this interaction as one between an empire of sorts that seeks to export its …

Despite its size, European economic policy has often lagged behind the rest of the world in its ability to generate growth and innovation. Much of the European economic research itself often trails behind that of the USA, which sets much of the agenda in mainstream ec…
