`An informative and authoritative study' - International Review of Administrative Sciences `For a range of views on what Europe's constitutional development, present and furture, might mean for the Union's individual citizens, readers should turn to A Citizens' Europe' - Government and Opposition `The 1992 Maastricht Treaty included a major step in the evolution of the notion of citizenship in the EU. Few express rights sprung into existence. Yet, this treatment addresses the symbolic value of this facet of European integration. The ten individually authored chapters thus cover the legal and political implications for the EU's evolution.... Readers and authors seeking an approach to citizenship as an important feature of organizational integration should consider this work - one of the few publications addressing this critical adjunct of EU development. It is well-edited and documented' - American Society of International Law, Interest Group on the UN Decade of International Law Newsletter
