Produktbeschreibung

Seminar paper from the year 2002 in the subject Politics - Topic: European Union, grade: 1,0 (A), Jagiellonian University in Krakow (Centre for European Studies), course: EU Law and Institutions, language: English, abstract: Now, in January 2002, a visible step in European integration has been accomplished.
