May 2011www.feelingeurope.eu & member Jean Monnet Centre of Excellence 1 ‘Justice gathers all virtue’ (Theognis) Theognis was a Greek poet, living during the second half of the 6th Century BC.

May 2011www.feelingeurope.eu & member Jean Monnet Centre of Excellence 2 EUROPE, just a view from myth via transition to viability

May 2011www.feelingeurope.eu & member Jean Monnet Centre of Excellence 3 ASPECTS The MYTH The CONTINENT The COMMUNITY SYNERGY UNION of NATION STATES Previous objects achieved, how to proceed further? Fields of EUROPEAN Politics

May 2011www.feelingeurope.eu & member Jean Monnet Centre of Excellence 4 THE MYTH Europe was a Phoenician princess, who was abducted by as bull disguised Zeus and was brought to Crete, where she gave birth to Minos, Rhadamanthus en Sarpedon. For Homer, Europe was a mythological queen of Crete and not a geografical indication. Later, Europe got the signification as continent Greece and near 500 BC, the signification developed to ‘land to the North’.

May 2011www.feelingeurope.eu & member Jean Monnet Centre of Excellence 5 THE CONTINENT (‘land to the North’) Pan Europe (nation states; borders, politics) EU (-memberstates) Russia Balkans Turkey GUAM,..

May 2011www.feelingeurope.eu & member Jean Monnet Centre of Excellence 6 (COMMUNITY of) CITIZENS ‘ Feeling good’ (prosperity & well-being) Involvement, Identity & Polyphony (philosophy, movements & ideologies, arts, culture, literature, poetry, music, dance, languages, beauty, grandeur, health, religions, the great good places)

May 2011www.feelingeurope.eu & member Jean Monnet Centre of Excellence 7 SYNERGY It often seems Europe and the community of citizens are 2 separate entities: 2 separate existing and operating grandeurs, knowing and noticing from each other that there is too less attention for each others strengths and aims, but by which for reasons there does not exist sufficient knowledge to merge into necessary synergy.

May 2011www.feelingeurope.eu & member Jean Monnet Centre of Excellence 8 UNION of NATION STATES Lisbon Treaty ( ) Governance (  platform to address UN, multi-level system, principle of subsidiarity) Economy & Finance (solutions and new theories?) Innovation Energy & Climate Human rights, Migration, Asylum Foreign & Security policy

May 2011www.feelingeurope.eu & member Jean Monnet Centre of Excellence 9 Previous objects achieved, how to proceed further? Last 60 years much valuable achievements have been gained: peace, increase of prosperity and stability, enlargement of democracy and implementation of 1 common currency. Original objects has been achieved for the greater part, or are out of date in the meantime. But how about the grade of ‘Europe consciousness’ and will it ever become a political Union? And a Union with 1 economic government? Further expansion? Federal? Or is it or will it become a faltering project (e.g. by little solidarity from citizens), as it is alleged during the last stage (Habermas, Bolkenstein). Time for change of policy into a new reality? Is a start integration of the European Commission in the European Council with 1 President? And projects only in fields of cross-border effects touching the European common interests? What roles? How far reaching? And lay downs of this in national laws?

May 2011www.feelingeurope.eu & member Jean Monnet Centre of Excellence 10 Fields of EUROPEAN Politics ‘Direction comes before speed’ (focussing on quick wins, as well as on comprehensive strategic directions. Than speed) Involvement & Identity (attitudes to life, an ideal of civilization: freedoms, democracy, tolerance, solidarity, humanism) Innovation ((break-throughs in) energy, health, (digital) technology, agriculture, products, services, practices and changes in behaviours and habits) Economy & Finance (Pact for the euro Oct. ‘10 and Single Market Act 2011, regulation, taxation and fiscality, labour market) Energy & Climate (common policy) Foreign & Security policy (human rights, migration, asylum, US, China, Russia, Turkey, Balkans, (North-) Africa, Middle-East, Iran, terrorism, piracy on sea) Demography (shrinking) Education ?
