It is an important reference point for future studies of the Brexit negotiations. The authors conducted in-depth interviews with key institutional players in Brussels and in several member states to document how the EU handled the first-ever exit of one of its members. The Brexit shock came at a time when the EU had barely recovered from the Euro crisis and was struggling to manage an unprecedented inflow of refugees. The immediate fear was that Brexit might be the final straw that broke the camel ’s back.  Eurosceptics were jubilant, and Europhiles were distraught. In reality, the EU reacted to Brexit with resolve and a determination to protect the polity. The book argues that getting the process right was crucial. The EU mobilised its collective capacity to negotiate effectively and with one voice.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":49743797420305,"sku":"NGR9783031262623","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52679750091025,"sku":"NLS9783031262623","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/303126262X.jpg?v=1751127128"},{"product_id":"europe-s-experimental-union-book-brigid-laffan-9780415102605","title":"Europe's Experimental Union","description":"Europe's Experimental Union challenges conventional writings on European integration by situating the analysis of the EU in the context of changing patterns of political and economic order.

By exploring how the EU responds to crises and conflict, this volume addresses both its resilience and vulnerability. The EU faces significant challenges: European integration is increasingly politicised; democratic politics within member states are increasingly volatile; challenger parties threaten the status quo; and party systems are shifting throughout Europe. These crises test both the EU and individual states, especially those that had to exchange interdependence in the Union for dependence on the Troika. Despite the tension of hard times, this volume points to patterns of continuity and change as the single market, somewhat side-lined and forgotten in the heat of crises, retains its role as the hard core of the Union and the EU’s most significant achievement.   This book was originally published as a special issue of West European Politics.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52689685512465,"sku":"NLS9781138040038","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9781138040038.jpg?v=1762335995"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/de-de\/collections\/autor-buecher-von-brigid-laffan.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
