The New Old World looks at the history of the European Union, the core continental countries within it, and the issue of its further expansion into Asia. It opens with a consideration of the origins and outcomes of European integration since the Second World War, and how today's EU has been theorized across a range of contemporary disciplines. It then moves to more detailed accounts of political and cultural developments in the three principal states of the original Common Market-France, Germany and Italy. A third section explores the interrelated histories of Cyprus and Turkey that pose a leading geopolitical challenge to the Community. The book ends by tracing ideas of European unity from the Enlightenment to the present, and their bearing on the future of the Union. The New Old World offers a critical portrait of a continent now increasingly hailed as a moral and political example to the world at large.

He approaches the EU with the deepest skepticism, and finds much to justify the use of his blade. -- John Lloyd * Financial Times * Anderson is among the most insightful and policy-relevant analysts of modern Europe. -- Andrew Moravcsik * Foreign Affairs * One of the best political, historical and literary essayists of the age. * Times Literary Supplement * As insightful, combative and invigorating as its illustrious predecessors. -- Mark Mazower * The Nation * This is a hugely ambitious and panoramic political book, of a sort rarely attempted in our era of quick leader biographies and reheated histories of the Second World War. -- Andy Beckett * The Guardian *
