A SECOND CHANCE FOR EUROPE GEBUNDEN

This book calls upon us to rethink and reboot the European Union. The authors dissect the EU's
many vulnerabilities: how some Member States are backsliding on the rule of law  freedom of the
press  and control of corruption - and how globalization's 'discontents' are threatening the
liberal international order. It examines the need for a common immigration policy  the need to
rethink the unsustainable debt overhang of some Eurozone countries  and the need to use
education to foster a European identity.Given the sum total of these vulnerabilities  the book
argues  the EU may not survive beyond 2025 in its present form - that is  unless decisive
action is taken. In turn  the book puts forward a number of workable solutions: a European
economic model to secure full employment  a stronger European Court of Human Rights to counter
systemic violations  a points-based immigration policy  clear exit options for the Eurozone 
and an Open Education Area with a common second language. These solutions may reduce the number
of EU countries  but would increase cohesion and overall survivability.
