Annotation This article is devoted to the research of peculiarities of European economic integration. The main feature of European integration theories is that they follow quick real-life processes, not per contra. Neofunctional and Inter-Parliamentary theories are analyzed. Special attention has been paid to B. Balassa’s theory of stages. Under this theory economic integration has several stages: free trade area, custom union, common market, economic union and complete economic integration. It’s described that after association agreement signing Ukraine will be on the first stage of economic integration — level of free trade area.
Keywords integration, European Union, association, free trade area.
