Although the European Union as an entity now enjoys support form across most of the political spectrum, this has by no means resulted in the acceptance of a single vision of the EU. The apparent success engendered by the Single European Act and the Maastricht Treaty have led instead to both a broadening and a reformulation of opposition. The authors of this volume focus on the connections between processes of European integration and the articulation of alternative programmes and policies. Part I considers the key unresolved dielmmas of the emerging economic and social movements throughout the EU, examining states that traditionally have voiced the greatest doubts about the Union, as well as those in which support has been strong.
