Constantine Arvanitopoulos and Konstantina E. Botsiou Europe at a
Crossroads European uni?cation has rested on a dual premise. One
part was the effort of the European nations to consolidate peace by
overcoming the nationalism which had 1 twice drenched the continent
in blood in the 20th century. War among West European states became
unthinkable in the post-war era. The second part was the creation
of a single European economy following the tremendous task of
post-war 2 reconstruction and recovery. Over the years the
achievement of economic stability was matched by initiatives that
aimed to render Western Europe competitive on a global scale. The
creation of the European Union (EU) in the 1990s through the
Treaties of Maastricht (1992) and Amsterdam (1997), and later Nice
(2001), which successively revised the founding Treaties of Rome
(1957), was largely a response 3 to the challenge of globalisation.

hybrid of the Euro- 4 pean welfare state, a mix of state-imposed
stability and private initiative. Like its 1 Sforza, C. (1936).
