«The objectives of the 2004 enlargement of the EU were clearly outlined and the positive effects were extensively promoted by the politicians. The process was promised to be accompanied by a stimulation of the EU economies and should be to the best of all 25 member states. But what does the real picture actually look like? What has changed since May 1, 2004, and how has the life of the new Member States? citizens and businesses been affected? Could the enlargement fulfil the ambitious expectations related to it and what are the true implications?» With a myriad of graphs and tables, the author provides a gargantuan trawl of resources and presents an authoritative collection of evidence on the enlargement. Working from business and economic frameworks, the book provides an in-depth discussion while explaining the economic and political forces in a manner that is accessible to all. «The evidence base is comprehensive and represents a possible one-stop resource for those who need to understand the effects of EU enlargement. The data is almost exhaustive and certainly any other resource, paper, report or book would be hard pressed to compete.» (Dr. Damian Ward, Prof. of Economics)
