Abstract: | The adoption of the Single European Act in 1986 not only intensified the European integration process and cured it from Eurosclerosis, but also gave a new impetus to dormant theories of political integration. The Europessimism of the 1970s and early 1980s seemed to confirm Haas's view that regional integration theory has become obsolete. (Haas, 1975). The success of the European drive towards a single market, however, has set in motion a reassessment of the neofunctinalist approach to political integration. |
