Which EU and what for?

Abstract

The EU enlargement is inside the historical tendency of continental Europe to be dominated by a German-Russian axis. The “creation of Europe” has been the German continuation of WW1 and WW2 in other ways. Will the German tradition of State-building by custom unification lead to a simple Great Germany or instead to some kind of new State-formation, an original form of a new feudal State? Will this new space be the pure enlargement of the existing EU or should a greater EU inevitably lose western pieces? No easy institutional solutions exist for what is presently happening, while modernization of the EU States and of the EU as a whole is on the agenda for fully valorizing the chances of the unique market space.
