Do we really want to live in European Superstate with its own currency, citizenship, Supreme Court, Parliament, army, police force, embassies and diplomats? All of these the European Union has already. Who gains from living in a great mega state like the European Union? The moguls of international corporations find it convenient. Certain politicians enjoy the power. But for everyone else the smaller state is more prosperous, and is more congenial in every way. It "democratic deficit" cannot be cured, argues Richard Body, because the way it works must make the people powerless. The author shows why the European Union will implode. Even if it survives the single currency, he explains how the electronic age will bring power back to ordinary people. The alternative set out in this book is a partnership of nation states working like the Council of Europe, with its forty-six countries co-operating together as they themselves believe is necessary.
