Why has the European Union been built on liberty first and solidarity second, while leaving the principle of community behind?
Spanning nearly eight decades (1948–2025), this historical investigation draws on primary sources collected across eight countries.
It offers a unique perspective on Europe—not just from Brussels, but from the ground in London, Paris, Berlin, Rome, Madrid, Budapest, and beyond.
The cover evokes the idea that this book is about industrial growth, but also about pollution.
