How did the process of European integration break down; how can it be repaired? In European Integration, 1950-2003, John Gillingham reviewed the history of the European project and predicted the rejection of the European constitution. Now the world's leading expert on the EU maps out a route to save the Union. The four chapters of this penetrating, fiercely-argued and often witty book subject today's dysfunctional European Union to critical scrutiny in an attempt to show how it is stunting economic growth, sapping the vitality of national governments, and undermining competitiveness. It explains how the attempt to revive the EU by turning it into a champion of research and development will backfire and demonstrates how Europe's great experiment in political and economic union can succeed only if the wave of liberal reform now under way in the historically downtrodden east is allowed to sweep away the prosperous and complacent west.

Integration is the most significant European historical development in the past fifty years, eclipsing in importance even the collapse of the USSR. Yet, until now, no satisfactory explanation is to be found in any single book as to why integration is significant, how it originated, how it has changed Europe, and where it is headed. Professor Gillingham's work corrects the inadequacies of the existing literature by cutting through the genuine confusion that surrounds the activities of the European Union, and by looking at his subject from a truly historical perspective. The late-twentieth century has been an era of great, though insufficiently appreciated, accomplishment that intellectually and morally is still emerging from the shadow of an earlier one of depression, and modern despotism. This is a work, then, that captures the historical distinctiveness of Europe in a way that transcends current party political debate.

Neither a feckless knight-errant nor a king who neglected his kingdom, Richard I was in reality a masterful and businesslike ruler. In this wholly rewritten version of a classic account of the reign of Richard The Lionheart, John Gillingham scrutinizes the reasons for the King's fluctuating reputation over successive centuries and provides a convincing new interpretation of the significance of the reign. This edition includes a complete annotation and expanded bibliography.

Jean Monnet, le père de l’Europe, un inconnu ? Des historiens européens et d’Amérique, spécialistes de l’Europe, ont rassemblé leurs connaissances acquises dans les archives de Jean Monnet et dans celles de leurs pays ou glanées dans les entretiens avec les témoins, pour faire un bilan sans complaisance de Jean Monnet. Ce volume ne fournira pas une biographie ronde et lisse mais plutôt des interprétations parfois contradictoires de la personnalité et de l’œuvre de Monnet, de l’inspirateur selon l’apostrophe fameuse du général de Gaulle. L’espace considéré est celui du siècle : depuis le premier engagement public de Monnet pendant la Grande Guerre jusqu’à la période du Comité d’Action pour les Etats-Unis d’Europe des années 1960 et 1970. La multiplicité des formes de l’action de Monnet révèle l’extraordinaire pouvoir de persuasion et de transformation de cet homme, issu du vieux terroir français des Charentes, mais embrassant aussi les lointains horizons de l’Atlantique. En ces temps d’hésitations internationales, de mondialisation redoutée, Monnet a poursuivi une idée simple, mais forte : la Paix et l’union des Européens. Le rapprochement entre la France et l’Allemagne en constituait la pierre angulaire. Dépasser les vieux antagonismes, fusionner les souverainetés, donner une identité à l’Europe, telle était son ambition. Ce livre d’histoire explique comment Monnet a su utiliser les grands événements du XXe siècle en travaillant avec les plus éminents responsables politiques pour réaliser, en partie, ces objectifs.
