European Spring

Mehr zum Buch

"Britain and the rest of Europe are in a mess. Our economies are failing to deliver higher living standards for most people - and many have lost faith in politicians' ability to deliver a brighter future, with support for parties like UKIP soaring. Are stagnation, decline and disillusionment inevitable? Do people have to turn to the likes of UKIP for alternative solutions? As a critically acclaimed author who was until recently a senior policymaker, Philippe Legrain has a unique combination of insider knowledge, intellectual authority and independent perspective that make him ideally placed to explain why things have gone wrong - and how to put them right. In this brilliantly original and passionate book, he explains why we need a European Spring: economic and political renewal"--Page 4 of cover.
