Résumé
Europe's transformations is the unifying theme for this collective work
that brings together leading academics and policy makers from across
Europe and beyond. When the geopolitical tectonic plates are shifting,
the sustainability of the Western economic model is under serious
challenge and internal divisions in Europe are deep, we aim at looking
at the major issues in a 'big picture' perspective. We draw lessons from
the way Europe has responded or not to changes both within and without
in multiple crises in recent years, try to understand what is at stake
and consider alternative policy proposals. All the contributors have a
long and widely recognized knowledge and experience of a wide range of
issues of European integration and Europe's role in the world. They
cross academic and professional boundaries and bring different
perspectives as top analysts and policy makers, including two former
prime ministers and a former US ambassador to the EU. They come together
as friends, colleagues, and former students of Loukas Tsoukalis
celebrating his scholarship and overall contribution to the European
public sphere.
The volume is divided into three main parts. The
first deals with issues of democracy and welfare. The second part deals
with major changes in the European balance of power and the balance
between institutions. The third part examines changes in the global
system and Europe's present and potential role in it.
