Our Europe, Not Theirs, Paperback / softback Book

Our Europe, Not Theirs Paperback / softback

Edited by Julian Priestley, Glyn Ford

Paperback / softback

Description

The policies pursued in Brussels are unremittingly conservative, the product of the technocratic right's dominance of EU institutions and most national capitals.

These essays propose a clean break with the right's hegemony and suggest a radical agenda for change and reform.

Instead of supporting the disruptive distraction of a referendum, the UK left should work with other European progressives to create a programme for economic, social and ecological renewal for Europe in the world.

In this volume, contributors - all leading MEPs and senior EU officials - discuss austerity's throttling of Europe's growth prospects; how to respond to the return of poverty and rampant inequalities; and how to challenge unaccountable corporate power.

They also engage critically with Europe's environmental policies, which have been long on promise and short on delivery; its short-sighted immigration management; and its sacrifice of fair trade in the name of an ideological commitment to unbridled globalisation.
