A second chance for Europe : economic political and legal perspectives of the European Union European Citizens at Risk Halting Support for the EU A Vibrant European Model. In Europe we trust. EU Mobility A sustainable immigration policy for the EU A Sustainable Eurozone with Exit Options European Identity and the Learning Union Forward to a Second Chance for Europe This book calls upon us to rethink and reboot the European Union. The authors dissect the EUs many vulnerabilities: how some Member States are backsliding on the rule of law freedom of the press and control of corruption and how globalizations discontents are threatening the liberal international order. It examines the need for a common immigration policy; the need to rethink the unsustainable debt overhang of some Eurozone countries; and the need to use education to foster a European identity. Given the sum total of these vulnerabilities the book argues the EU may not survive beyond 2025 in its present form that is unless decisive action is taken. In turn the book puts forward a number of workable solutions: a European economic model to secure full employment; a stronger European Court of Human Rights to counter systemic violations; a points based immigration policy; clear exit options for the Eurozone; and an Open Education Area with a common second language. These solutions may reduce the number of EU countries but would increase cohesion and overall survivability.
