Description

Britain and much of Europe is hypnotized by the struggle between integrationists and nation-starters, and is set to drift towards "unification" with little idea of its constitutional options. In this text, Siedentop sets out the key issues for those who wish to construct a Europe that is prosperous, fair, and free. Rejecting knee-jerk hostility to the idea of a "united states of Europe," Siedentop argues that the main enemy of freedom at the national level is precisely the kind of unaccountable, dirigiste, and bureaucratic government now developing in Brussels. In its place, he champions a steady and openly debated progress towards sovereign democratic institutions which combines a Jeffersonian commitment to democracy with a very British attachment to gradual reform and pragmatic government.
