This book introduces a sociological perspective on European integration by looking at different accounts of Europeanization as society building. The chapters describe how elites in postwar Europe launched the project of European integration, how it became ingrained in everyday life and experiences of the Europeans, how it confronted resistances, and, ultimately, how it went through its most severe crisis.
