The European Union, Part I BOSTON (pri) - The European Union is a new kind of superpower. "The Changing World" looks beyond the treaties and negotiations to probe what the E.U. is, how it came into being, and where it's going.

Part I - Listen
The devastation of World War Two sparked calls for a new Europe, one where three wars in two generations would not only be unthinkable - but impossible. Is today's European Union the answer? The "Changing World's" Allan Little examines the beginnings of the E.U.

Part II - Listen
Britain's road to membership in the European Community was long and tortuous. Allan Little looks at the price Britain had to pay for entry into the European Economic Community.

"The Changing World" is a series of documentaries produced by the BBC World Service and PRI's "The World." The series is distributed nationwide by PRI.
