"The United States of Europe" is a sequel to "After 1992". With this book, Wistrich seeks to address more recent developments in Europe, updating and extending the debate. He looks in detail at the Maastricht agreement and discusses reasons for strong opposition to the treaty in Britain and Denmark. He examines the geopolitical consequences of change in Eastern Europe and the former USSR, giving attention to the role of a strong, enlarged Community in international relations and within the United Nations. In this context he looks at the collapse of communism and at war in Iraq and the Balkans. "The United States of Europe" points the way to a Community which will integrate the whole of Europe and take a substantial role in world affairs.
