Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW WITH EMMANUEL MACRON As it faces a critical moment of truth, is Europe finally developing its own strategy? Without losing sight of its hopes and ambitions in terms of green and digital transition, energy autonomy, space and maritime conquest, research and innovation, the European Union has changed a great deal in the last five years — in the wake of the health crisis, and now with war at its borders — and it is beginning to shape its own geopolitical posture. Questions involving European sovereignty, defence and the definition of a common position vis-à-vis other world powers, in particular the United States and China, are leading to responses that are moving in the right direction. By linking its future to that of Ukraine, the Union is meeting the security and strategic challenges facing our continent, while ensuring respect for fundamental rights and its duty of solidarity. By adapting its agricultural, budgetary, financial and trade instruments, it acknowledges the constant need to stimulate growth. In this election year 2024, with a new balance among the 720 seats in the European Parliament, and the appointment of a new Commission, a great deal of hope is being placed on the European Union. As it focuses on the major issues shaping the future of Europe, the Schuman Report on Europe, the State of the Union 2024 not only brings together eminent figures from the world of politics, foremost among them the President of the French Republic, the President of the European Commission and the President of the European Parliament, it also gives the floor to key players in business, research and diplomacy. Throughout the book, they share their analyses and visions of the added value that the European Union provides. With the support of original maps and annotated statistical data, this book is an essential tool for understanding the multidimensional challenges facing Europe today.

Download or read book State of the Union Schuman report on Europe 2023 written by Pascale Joannin and published by Editions Marie B. This book was released on 2023-05-02 with total page 365 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One year after war irrupted on the continent once more, the European Union has shown remarkable resilience: the adoption of sanctions against Russia, the financial, humanitarian and military support given to Ukraine and the diversification of its energy supply sources have confirmed, once again, that Europe is increasingly adept at responding to crises. Of course, it is too early to claim victory. Its room for manoeuvre remains limited and its responses must take account of the mistakes of previous decades that have now been highlighted by the reality of the present situation: a lack of investment in its collective defence, a certain naivety in the choice of its dependencies and an excessive faith in the positive political effects of free trade. And yet the European Union's ability to implement effective coordinated responses and its determination to fight for the freedom of a country under attack has been unwavering, to the extent that the followers of a noxious "every-man-for-himself" attitude have been won over, making it even more attractive for others to join this ambitious project. Faced with a succession of unprecedented shocks worldwide and caught in the stand-off between America and China, the European model of economic growth, despite the disruptive impact of inflation, is being called upon to renew itself, with a view to strategic autonomy. This is why the Schuman Report on Europe - the State of the Union 2023 is an essential guide. Through its original analyses of the risks posed and opportunities presented by this crucial moment it constitutes a compass for navigating the complex reality which the European Union now faces. With a wealth of new maps and a unique set of commented statistics, it guides readers who want to understand the main issues at stake, likewise those wishing to contribute to reflection on the construction of tomorrow's Europe.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The war in Ukraine has added another crisis to the impressive string of difficulties that the European Union has faced in recent years. After the financial crisis, then the pandemic, it now faces a new challenge of a magnitude not seen since 1950: the return of war to the continent. The European Union's resilience has greatly improved. It has coped with the virus and, thanks to the pooling of its resources, and it has become the world's leading producer of vaccines. It has been able to manage the unprecedented consequences of an unpredictable situation as best it could. Since it was not in a position to confront Russia's military aggression on its own, the European Union has taken up its full place in the Atlantic Alliance; it has shown solidarity, responded quickly and shown a united front. From now on, in all situations, there will be European action, a common or at least concerted policy. Europe is on the move, for the long term and, in all likelihood, for ever. It makes progress as difficulties arise, but also as its requirements and values change. This is why the Schuman Report on Europe - the State of the Union 2022 is so useful. Over and above the current situation, it helps us to assess the effectiveness of the common policies that are now permanent and the fundamental changes in its governance and its practices. It is, more than ever, a relevant and indispensable tool for understanding the reality of European integration, its progress and its hesitations. Complete with original maps and a unique set of commented statistics, it provides a unique and practical tool for the analysis of Europe for as wide an audience as possible.

Download or read book Schuman report on Europe written by Thierry Chopin and published by Editions Marie B. This book was released on 2018-04-25 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A complete review of the European Union. Europeans are facing major challenges. From the risk of populist contagion and Brexit at internal level, to migratory issues and the questioning of their values, as well as their interests, from the external points of view, Europeans must fi nd their place in a world in which only Union will bring strength. These challenges imply the Europeans’ ability to stand as one against the turmoil they face. In a situation like this how should their expectations be met, notably in terms of security as well as economic and social protection ? In his speech at the Sorbonne French President Emmanuel Macron, put forward a new European policy. He wants to turn European integration into a tool for sovereignty, both from the economic and geopolitical points of view, with the aim of giving Europeans total freedom and a true feeling of pride. Undeniably, France is back in Europe. European integration has freed the States and people of Europe of their permanent power struggles ; it now has to protect them from external constraints. The question is now to know how this should be achieved. This is the question at the heart of the 9th Schuman Report. Delve into this reference work regarding European Affairs! EXTRACT If we want to protect our European values, our freedom, peace and prosperity, we must be more ambitious. We need more of the spirit of Alcide de Gasperi, of Aldo Moro and of Helmut Kohl in today’s Europe. In 1946 Konrad Adenauer dreamt of a community of European people in which “every population will provide its own irreplaceable, unique contribution to the economy and to European culture, thought, poetry and Western creativity”. Let us work together as Christian Democrats in Europe to make this dream come true. Let us stand up and join our forces to preserve our European way of life.

Download or read book The Invention of International Order written by Glenda Sluga and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2021-12-07 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story of the women, financiers, and other unsung figures who helped to shape the post-Napoleonic global order In 1814, after decades of continental conflict, an alliance of European empires captured Paris and exiled Napoleon Bonaparte, defeating French military expansionism and establishing the Concert of Europe. This new coalition planted the seeds for today's international order, wedding the idea of a durable peace to multilateralism, diplomacy, philanthropy, and rights, and making Europe its center. Glenda Sluga reveals how at the end of the Napoleonic wars, new conceptions of the politics between states were the work not only of European statesmen but also of politically ambitious aristocratic and bourgeois men and women who seized the moment at an extraordinary crossroads in history. In this panoramic book, Sluga reinvents the study of international politics, its limitations, and its potential. She offers multifaceted portraits of the leading statesmen of the age, such as Tsar Alexander, Count Metternich, and Viscount Castlereagh, showing how they operated in the context of social networks often presided over by influential women, even as they entrenched politics as a masculine endeavor. In this history, figures such as Madame de Staël and Countess Dorothea Lieven insist on shaping the political transformations underway, while bankers influence economic developments and their families agitate for Jewish rights. Monumental in scope, this groundbreaking book chronicles the European women and men who embraced the promise of a new kind of politics in the aftermath of the Napoleonic wars, and whose often paradoxical contributions to modern diplomacy and international politics still resonate today.
Download or read book Robert Schuman written by Alan Fimister and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2008 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On 9th May 1950 Robert Schuman (1886-1963) made the historic declaration that would form the foundation of the European Community. What is seldom appreciated is the remarkable degree to which Schuman's actions were the conscious implementation of the Neo-Thomistic project of Pope Leo XIII (1878-1903). Leo sought to employ the intellectual resources of St Thomas Aquinas to achieve «the restoration, both in rulers and peoples, of the principles of the Christian life in civil and domestic society». The resolution of the Church's difficulties with the French Republic and republicanism generally was a central goal of Leo's programme. In the half-century that followed a series of philosophers sought to envisage the concrete conditions under which Leo's vision could be realised. Foremost among them was Jacques Maritain (1882-1973). Robert Schuman was a close student of Aquinas and committed to the reconciliation of the Church and the Republic. As French Foreign Minister he sought to act upon Maritain's belief that a European federation conceived under the banner of liberty would ultimately lead to the establishment of a new Christendom.
Download or read book Schuman report on Europe written by Pascale Joannin and published by Editions Marie B. This book was released on 2019-05-15 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A complete book to understand better the affairs of the European Union in 2019, drafted by specialists. The Schuman Report 2019 on the State of the Union offers a complete panorama of the European Union. The latest edition of this reference book is an update on the many challenges the European Union will face in 2019. EXTRAIT 2019 will mark a decisive turning point for the European Union. The renewal of all of the European institutions, in an extremely specific international context, will provide an opportunity for decisive choices. American withdrawal and Chinese ambitions are challenging Europe. Will it assert its place and role amongst the three major centres of power in the world? Will Russia’s excesses, Turkey’s digressions and the instability on its borders convince it that there cannot be strong diplomacy without credible military power? Will the emergence of Africa lead Europeans to rethink their relations with the continent of youth, based on understanding and fraternity? These challenges cannot be ignored and will have to be overcome. They will certainly force the Union to launch major reform. European integration has succeeded well beyond all expectation, going beyond the hopes and dreams of its founders. À PROPOS DE L'AUTEUR Pascale Joannin is managing director of the Schuman Fondation.
Download or read book Global Taxation written by Philipp Genschel and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2022 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Global Taxation investigates the global transition to modern taxation from the 18th century to today. Modern taxation refers to the broad-based tax instruments that allowed for the emergence of big government as we know it today, including, most prominently, income taxes and general consumption taxes. The volume draws on a new historical dataset of tax introduction worldwide to map the global spread of modern taxes descriptively and to explore its correlates analytically. It makes four contributions to the literature. First, it corrects a pervasive Western bias in historical political economy and fiscal sociology. Most of this literature focuses heavily on the tax policy of advanced democracies in Europe. The chapters of this volume explore how far Western theories and insights travel to non-Western contexts. Second, the volume mitigates a recency bias in much of the macro-quantitative literature in comparative political economy and public finance. The chapters investigate whether insights travel across time from recent to more distant periods of observation. Third, the volume compensates for the substantive preoccupation of extant research with the personal income tax and the VAT by extending the analysis to other important tax instruments: the corporate income tax, the inheritance tax, non-VAT sales taxes, and social security contributions. Finally, the volume goes beyond the prevalent methodological nationalism in fiscal sociology and comparative political economy. It shows that non-sovereign tax introductions were common in colonial and imperial settings and compares analytically how the logic of these non-sovereign introductions differed from sovereign ones.
