europe fragmenting
Since the Second World War, European institutions have repeatedly been tested by crisis. A decade ago there remained widespread confidence that the future of the so-called European Project was secure – born over a lengthy period of successful institutional reform, growing prosperity, economic integration, expanding membership and, even, popular support. The end of the Cold War enabled this founding vision - protecting peace, entrenching democracy and promoting a common sense of European identity - to go beyond the Franco-German, to embrace the whole continent. Participation in shared institutions was to be the effective formula for diminishing and controlling inherited suspicions, animosities and conflicts, among, and within, the nations of Europe. Today this European solidarity is fracturing. The severity and complexity of the economic crisis has undermined earlier optimism, even the inevitability of the ultimate success of the European Project.
