Описание: Europe is caught in its greatest crisis since the Second World War. The catalogue of ills seems endless: an economic crisis spread through most of Europe`s Mediterranean tier that has crippled Greece and driven a wedge between northern and southern Europe terrorist attacks in Paris, Cologne, Brussels, and Nice growing aggression from Russia in Ukraine and the Baltic states and refugees escaping war-torn neighbours. The European Union`s inability to handle any of these disasters was a driving factor in Great Britain voting to leave, and others may soon follow. The result won`t just be a continent in turmoil, but also a serious threat to American and British security,the Atlantic, let alone the Channel, simply isn`t big enough to keep European troubles in Europe. For everyone`s sake, Europe must survive.The question is how. In Europe`s Last Chance , Guy Verhofstadt,former prime minister of Belgium and current leader of the liberal faction in the European Parliament,provides the essential framework for understanding Europe today, laying bare the absurdity of a system in which each member state can veto legislation, opt in or out of the Euro, or close borders on a whim. But Verhofstadt does not just indict the European Union, he also offers a powerful vision for how the continent can change for the better. The key, argues Verhofstadt, is to reform the European Union along the lines of America`s federal government: a United States of Europe strong enough to stand with the United States of America in making a better, safer world.A visionary book from one of today`s luminaries of European leadership, Europe`s Last Chance is a clarion call to save the European Union, one of the world`s greatest chances for peace and prosperity.
