A impassioned defense of the European Union and a concise analysis
of its present challenges and future In this provocative book,
renowned public intellectual Ivan Krastev reflects on the future of
the European Union-and its potential lack of a future. With
far-right nationalist parties on the rise across the continent and
the United Kingdom planning for Brexit, the European Union is in
disarray and plagued by doubts as never before. Krastev includes
chapters devoted to Europe's major problems (especially the
political destabilization sparked by the more than 1.3 million
migrants from the Middle East, North Africa, and South Asia), the
spread of right-wing populism (taking into account the election of
Donald Trump in the United States), and the thorny issues facing
member states on the eastern flank of the EU (including the threat
posed by Vladimir Putin's Russia). In a new afterword written in
the wake of the 2019 EU parliamentary elections, Krastev concludes
that although the union is as fragile as ever, its chances of
enduring are much better than they were just a few years ago.
