Conceptualizing and creating a European supra-national democracy
The challenge to save European modern civilization
pp. 75-93
in: Francesco Tava, Emanuele Caminada (eds), Facing global crisis after Europe, Metodo 4 (1), 2016.Abstract
Toynbee suggests that the European Modern civilization is confronted with the existential challenge “unite or perish”. The specific current crises foster de-civilizing processes in European society and politics. Europeans need to decouple state and nation, and demos and ethnos to conceptualize and create a supra-national and post-national democracy. This attempt has a global historical significance for the prospects of a new global order, based on a peaceful process of pooling and sharing of sovereignty, to cope with global problems.
