It captures its author’s intellectual interests at a time when he was retiring from the career of a professional philosopher and was about to become one of the pioneers of the Common Market and\u003cbr\u003e the idea of the European Union.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eFrom the Hardcover edition.\u003c\/i\u003e","brand":"Verso","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47175915077872,"sku":"9781781686300","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781781686300_p0.jpg?v=1763717294","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781781686300","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
