Über diesen Titel

China's rise and Russian aggression have upended the global balance of power. The US has proven an unstable partner. Illiberalism is gaining ground. It's time to admit that Europe is once again central to Britain's future.

The Continent houses our allies and friends. We still trade more with the EU than with anyone else. Like a court order in a divorce, the Brexit deal contains our bare legal obligations. Yet as dangerous forces gather and global technologies stoke animosity, we have a wider duty. If Britain and Europe can't work together, what chance do democracy and the rule of law have?

The Labour Party aims for a 'reset'. Barrister and mediator Marina Wheeler proposes something more radical: a roadmap towards a meaningful rapprochement. In A More Perfect Union, she tackles the political anxieties and identity crises on both sides of the Channel, and makes the case that transforming this relationship is now critical if our fundamental political liberties are to survive another generation. Concise, forensic, devastating, it is essential listening no matter which side you were on.

The bitterness of the past decade is receding. It's time to build a union that honours the 40 years we were together.

Kritikerstimmen

Deliciously short and admirably lucid, this little book has the power to heal the wounds of Brexit. As a tribal Remainer I found myself nodding far more than I expected (LUCY KELLAWAY, author)
A must for all who wish to see a flourishing relationship between the UK and its European neighbours. Covering succinctly but accurately the UK's near 50-year membership, the author's 'tough love' description explains in vivid detail how she, a lifelong Europhile, reluctantly decided that the UK should leave the EU. Yet the UK and Europe now need each other even more than in the past. The author's call for a profound rethink of how a new relationship could be forged, respecting all sides, is both inspiring and timely (CHRISTOPHER BELLAMY KC, former EU judge)
Weaving history, politics and law, Wheeler offers valuable insights overlooked in the heated debates of the recent past and bold suggestions on how we might create a better and more enduring Union. By voting to leave the EU in 2016, we did not turn our back on shared European values, nor did we renounce our international duties and responsibilities. We rejected membership of a supra-national institution, unwilling to create the democratic checks and balances citizens have a right to expect. Even though I thought I had read most things on the subject, I came away with new ways of looking at it (GISELA STUART, Former Labour MP, Presidium Member on the Convention on the Future of Europe and Chair of Vote Leave)
A principled, personal and refreshingly readable take on Britain's relationship with the rest of Europe, a mix of memoir and battle cry, imbued - whatever your views - with a decency and intelligence that is courageous, rare and valuable (PHILIPPE SANDS)
