The European Union is in crisis. Crippled by economic problems,political brinkmanship, and institutional rigidity, the EU faces anincreasingly uncertain future.
In this compelling essay, leading scholar of European politics, JanZielonka argues that although the EU will only survive in modestform - deprived of many real powers - Europe as an integratedentity will grow stronger. Integration, he contends, will continueapace because of European states' profound economicinterdependence, historic ties and the need for politicalpragmatism. A revitalized Europe led by major cities, regions andpowerful NGOs will emerge in which a new type of continentalsolidarity can flourish.
The EU may well be doomed, but Europe certainly is not.
