Is Europe Good for You?: Eu Spending and Well-Being - Hardcover

by Lisa Dellmuth (Author)

This important book investigates how the European Union (EU) can use its regional funding programmes in ways that increase citizen well-being. It demonstrates that while EU social investments improve labour market performance in rich regions, they exacerbate income inequality in poor regions. Based on this insight, it presents a theory on the conditions under which EU funding will enhance prosperity.
