Spain and Portugal in the European Union The First Fifteen Years

This publication provides an up-to-date assessment of the political and economic issues and is valuable reading for anyone wishing to understand contemporary Spain and Portugal.

Drawing on research by established scholars, Spain and Portugal in the European Union offers an original series of analyses of the development of Iberian politics, sociology and economics since the accession to the European Union.Manuel, Paul Christopher is the author of 'Spain and Portugal in the European Union The First Fifteen Years' with ISBN 9780714684161 and ISBN 0714684163.
