PARTNERSHIP

PARTENAIRES

It is a great Italian who affirms it: the European construction urgently needs to be consolidated by a revival Franco-German. From the inside, its bases are not only threatened by Brexit, but, more broadly, by disorientated opinions that consider themselves neglected by the European Union. Outside, Trump’s taunts, Putin’s mistrust and Erdogan’s provocations demand more than ever Europeans to take charge. Especially since our continent must also respond to major upheavals such as the increase in the world population, migrant arrivals, climate change and rapid changes in the economy. Europe today to assert itself to become a power of values. Enrico Letta was head of the Italian government in the turbulent times of the euro crisis and the migrant crisis. In this book, the result of interviews with Sébastien Maillard, he advances ways to “de-localize” Europe, democratize its functioning and establish its leadership, in order to reconcile the European project with all those who consider themselves the losers ignored. With conviction, realism and pedagogy, he shows us that if Europe divides, it will be marginalized at the risk of counting for nothing in a world of bullies.
