Books by Andreas Bieler

This book provides a detailed comparison of the trade unions of five EU member states (Austria, Britain, France, Germany and Sweden) and their positions on EMU. Several European-level trade union organisations are also investigated. -- .

The main argument of this book is that the revival of European integration in the mid-1980s and the emergence of a "New Europe" have to be analyzed against the background of globalization and the transnational restructuing of social forces since the early 1970s.
