The European Union (EU) represents a remarkable process of international political integration and a highly developed customs union. It reflects the dual goals of political integration and internal trade liberation. Over the past 20 years, it has struggled to balance these goals with the needs of environmental management. This paper seeks to understand these processed by analyzing the European Union as transformed by the Maastricht Treaty in light of the Winnipeg Principles on Trade and Sustainable Development.
