本书分析了2007-2008年经济金融危机后欧盟经济治理框架的重大变革，探讨了危机如何被利用来改变现状，以及这对欧洲社会维度的影响。
Between 2007 and 2008, a major economic and financial crisis hits the global economy. Although the crisis manifested first in the United States, it soon spreads through Europe. Build- ing on imbalances created by the relaunched process of European integration since the end of the 1980s, the crisis soon became a “double-dip” recession for European and especially Eurozone countries. As social scientists know well, crises offer formidable opportunities to alter the status quo. The recession that started more than a decade ago was no exception, and European Union (EU) policy makers made significant changes to the European economic governance framework during its unfolding.
