Overview
Key facts
European leaders such as Churchill, Adenauer, de Gaulle, and Schuman have seen integration as a means to achieve both peaceful unity and economic success. Their work developed into the European Union (EU) and the increased social, economic and political interdependence of member states. Yet others, including many populist politicians, claim that integration has increased bureaucracy, led to rent-seeking behaviour, and diverted attention from high-growth markets elsewhere.
London School of Economics and Political Science's Economics of European Integration course introduces the main economic aspects of the current development of the EU and its policies. Covering the process of European Integration and its economic impacts on individuals, firms and regions you will analyse the economic opportunities and challenges generated by EU integration. Engaging in discussion with leading faculty, you will assess current EU policies and their ability to support the process of economic integration as well as their ability to mitigate potential economic side-effects.
