The twelfth edition of Europe's World is out. We feel it's fair to say that few if any publications in the field of international relations and policy debate have grown as fast or widened their scope so remarkably as Europe's World.

Europe's World is also adding a new section entitled the Arab World to complement existing sections that as well as covering international and European issues include Security & defence, the Developing World and Sustainable Europe.

 
 
 

Has the crisis shown that “a European economy” is just a pipe dream?

Job losses in the EU, warns BUSINESSEUROPE, are expected to reach 4.5m this year, with Spain and the UK each accounting for almost 1m unemployed people. By 2010 Europe’s unemployment rate could reach 10%. It will not strike every EU country equally, but it is clear that the majority of them will be faced with unemployment rates of over 10% by the end of this year. Forecasted unemployment in countries like Spain could rise to 16-19% by December. Has the crisis shown that “a European economy” is just a pipe dream?
