Abstract

Today, in the current climate of perilous misperception that has imbued various European nations, we can acquire vision and courage from the lucid wisdom of statesmen who matured their convictions, indeed also from their human suffering, caused by the atrocities of the first half of the twentieth century, and who chose the prospect of a united Europe as the more promising option including for their nation. The author reflections will concentrate on some events that have recently occurred in Europe and on what remains to be implemented to continue down the path of peace and development by which post WWII civil progress has been characterized on our continent. His conviction as an institutional economist is that the current EU democracy is an admirable but not complete application of the principles of shared and innovative subsidiarity through which to obtain the needed social liberalism that constitutes a civil society-led Europe.
