"A brilliant, polemical work of intellectual synthesis.... Cafruny and Ryner make a powerful case that Europe's continuing subordination to the US ... is undermining both the political foundations of the European project and the future of European welfare states. Anyone who prefers a more optimistic story must overcome the compelling arguments they have assembled."—Fred Block, University of California, Davis
"In this path-breaking study, Cafruny and Ryner offer a sober assessment of Europe's prospects. Theirs is an argument with which everyone concerned with the future of Europe will have to engage."—Andrew Gamble, University of Cambridge
"Europe at Bay is a well focused, incisive, and carefully argued assessment of the current state of EU integration in the Atlantic context."—Kees van der Pijl, University of Sussex
