What is the EU's Future?

http://www.watsoninstitute.org/

Brown University's Watson Institute for International Studies presents: The European Union in a Moment of Crisis (October 28-29). It is a two-day exploration of the EU at this pivotal moment in its history analyzing its institutional, financial, and foreign policy issues. Four separate panels featured two of Europes leading political figures: past European Commission President Romano Prodi (the former Italian prime minister who is now a Brown professor at large) and former Austrian Chancellor Alfred Gusenbauer (a Watson Institute visiting professor). They analyze the sweeping changes that continue to reshape Europe, 20 years after the fall of the Berlin Wall.

Moderating the panel is Watson Institute Director Michael Kennedy and Institute Faculty Fellow Mark Blyth.

• Thursday, October 29, 7pm-8:30pm What Is the EU's Future? In this culminating event, building on the previous three, Mark Blyth proposes that the EU's future is past, with response from Romano Prodi and Alfred Gusenbauer, followed by open questions from the floor.

@cr4yv3n because like many places in the so-called western world, political leaders in the balkans are more akin to shepherds than elected leaders, shepherding blind citizens for their own gains (or the gains of someone above them). Da su politicari bili posteni ljudi, nebi doslo do rata

@charlisd5 Turkey is a long way to being eligable, and Russia needs to stabilize much more. Either way Europe needs to focus on internal affairs right now, no expansion untill we manage to intergrate the Eastern European nations and deal with the PIG nations.

The balkans did not forget after 50 years, what makes these people think they will forget the injustice done to them by the EU and NATO so soon?

[charlisd5]

one of the reasons that Russia can't get in EU is because it's too violent to Europe patterns and Turkey in this matter is more peaceful...
