"For all its achievements in integrating Europe, the EU's human rights policy is not coherent, balanced or professionally organized. The introduction of a single currency, the problems of racism and xenophobia, the need for a humane refugee policy, the growing powers of the EU in many fields, and the Union's imminent eastward expansion, all make it urgent to adopt such policies. In this volume the leading experts in the field, including individuals from every EU country, provide an insightful critique of current policies and detailed recommendations for the future."--BOOK JACKET.
