Book excerpt: The process of European integration is considered the most innovative example of regionalism in the world. The Covid-19 pandemic crisis, which the world experienced since the beginning of 2020, caused a brutal negative shock on the economies. It raised new doubts and challenges about the European integration project, making the prospect of the EU’s dissolution something possible, even if undesirable. The book analyses these events, counting with the contribution of 41 authors, from universities and research centers of several European countries, and also from other continents. Its objective is to gather four perspectives to the European integration in a post-pandemic context: I) that of the countries of the Eurozone;II) that of the Eurozone candidate countries; III) the East “look” of EU candidate countries, and IV) the view of the rest of the world. The book is divided into four parts, each corresponding to one of these inputs, for a total of 24 chapters.
