Uncertain Destinations: The European Union at 60
EUSA Fifteenth Biennial Conference | May 4-6, 2017 | Miami Marriott Biscayne Bay

Sixty years after the Treaty of Rome, regional integration has profoundly transformed the economies, polities and societies of Europe. Although the European Union is more central than ever to the domestic life of its member states, it has never appeared so fragile. President Jean-Claude Juncker described his tenure as the European Commission’s “last chance,” faced with the “polycrisis” of a dysfunctional Eurozone, a catastrophic refugee conundrum, the unpicking of the Schengen area, and the rise of nationalist movements. In the era of the “constraining dissensus,” no one is indifferent to the EU.
