Democratic Europe The Alternative to the European Union

"Do we really want to live in a European Superstate with its own currency, citizenship, Supreme Court, Parliament, army, police force, embassies and diplomats - all of those the European Union has already. Its "democratic deficit" cannot be cured, argues Richard Body, because the way it works must make the people powerless. The alternative set out in this book is a partnership of nation states working like the Council of Europe, with its forty-six countries co-operating together as they themselves believe it's necessary."--BOOK JACKET.Body, Richard is the author of 'Democratic Europe The Alternative to the European Union', published 2006 under ISBN 9781872410647 and ISBN 1872410642.
