Historical Lessons For Europe'S Future In The Wake Of The Eu Convention

Abstract

The EU's leaders are not taking constitutional reform seriously. An analysis of the history of the development of federal states suggests that they are unlikely to do so until a crisis precipitates action. The current constitutional arrangements and those proposed by the constitutional convention are a recipe for continued integration. Paradoxically, a brief, well‐drafted federal constitution might stop the process of integration.
