Guy Verhofstadt, unsurprisingly, claims that the solution to Europe’s nationalism problem is further European federalism. While this statement is partially true, it is misleading and, therefore, I must disagree. A federal Europe would have the tools to combat nationalism (and it’s leftist counterpart) as well as having the virtue of being more resistant to propaganda… » read more

By Chris Rogers, Associate Director I can agree with our Chairman, Chris Whitehouse, on a number of issues when it comes to Europe and the European Union. Yes, the ‘Remainers’ should be disappointed, if not frankly ashamed, by the way they have run a campaign based on fear (although one could make a very similar… » read more

Three weeks after Paris attacks, Europe is still in shock. 130 civilians are dead, sending a very clear message not only to French citizens, but to every European: ‘you are not safe at home’. For 70 years, no war has broken out in the EU’s territory and Europeans naturally want to keep this secure and… » read more

I do not want to write this article, or I should say that I do not want to have to write this article. I wish there wasn’t occasion to write again on another terrorist attack in France. I want to take this opportunity to think out-loud and reflect on this horrible event and my thoughts… » read more

Guest blog post by Richard van Tongeren, Interim-manager. The last couple of years there is a lot to do about the survival of the EURO in it’s present form.

The European Court of Justice has invalidated the Safe Harbor. I think there are good legal, economic, data protection, and political grounds to question the wisdom of this judgment. I think that the legal case against the Safe Harbor is pretty weak, both with regard to the powers of national data protection authorities (DPAs), and… » read more

China has spooked investors. What has been happening on financial markets for over a month, since the speculative bubble burst in Shanghai, is reminiscent of the onset of the great recession in 2008-2009, especially when coupled with the decline in crude oil prices, which is widely perceived as a harbinger of recession. The standard explanation… » read more

The world is in a state of rapid change. It is not a sense of irony to say this has always been the case for the lifetimes of much of everyone living today. Constant upheaval may be the recipe for European modernity, and our societies are based in the act of replacing old with new.… » read more

Faced with the brunt of asylum applications made in Europe this year and increasingly violent far-right reactions to newcomers, Germany has called for front-line migrant registration centres in Italy and Greece and a more even distribution of refugees across the EU. Such demands are understandable, but fail to consider the needs, motivations and tactics of… » read more
Few economic phenomena attract as much attention in Poland as fuel prices. This is not surprising, considering that an average household owns at least one passenger car, and the share of fuels in total consumer spending has long surpassed 5%, which is more or less the same we spend on healthcare, appliances and running our… » read more
