The revolutionary changes of 1989-90 in Central and Eastern Europe which paved the way to German unification will have a lasting impact on the speed and the future direction of European integration. This timely book analyses the causes of these dramatic developments and evaluates the implications of a united Germany for the process of European integration. After assessing the decline of 'socialism' in Eastern Europe and the peaceful revolution in the former German Democratic Republic, the authors then examine the social, political and economic perspectives of the united Germany, paying particular attention to its eastern part. Finally, it reassesses the prospects for European integration in the light of recent events. United Germany and the New Europe will be essential reading for all those concerned with the economic and political future of Europe and the restructuring of centrally planned economies. It will also make an excellent addition to courses on international economic and political relations, monetary integration and German and European studies.
