Ideas and Elites: The Social Construction of Economic and Monetary Union

"Martin Marcussen has written an important book about the social construction of EMU that should be essential reading for all students of European Integration. It provides and object lesson in the succesful combination of theory with empirical research and sheds new light on how European integration has worked in the economic and monetary fields. A particular strength is its comparative focus and new material on Denmark." Kenneth Dyson, Professor, Department of European Studies, Bradford University, UK
