Europe: tired ritual (Marco Emanuele)

Increasingly, Europe shows its absence as a historic and strategic project.

I think that Europe can and must play a key role in the history of the world. That said, however, I underline that we call Europe the sum of national and self-referential interests and not the integration of  "countries" in dialogue. We call Europe a technocratic system, condemned by demographics and unable to face the historical challenges that surround it (the absence of an european strategy for the Mediterranean).

Between walls and all sorts of populisms, Europe is a tired ritual. We do not have an european citizenship and the visions of the "founding fathers" risk to become "museum memories". It's our responsibility, and it is absolutely necessary, re-think to re-found Europe; there are many dynamics to consider, trying to return to the "old continent" its quality of "laboratory" for a "supranational democracy".
