The Idea of a European Superstate examines this - the most basic - question raised by the European Union. In doing so, Glyn Morgan assesses the arguments put forward by euroskeptics and their critics. In a challenge to both sides of the debate, Morgan argues in support of a European superstate. Unless Europe forms a unitary sovereign state, Europe will remain, so he maintains, weak and dependent for its security on the United States. This book represents a unique effort by a political philosopher to examine the justification of European integration."--BOOK JACKET UR - http://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0734/2004058687-b.html ER -
