13:00/14:30 - 1 July 2010 L'UE peut-elle se permettre d'être "postmoderne" dans un monde multipolaire? There is a growing perception that the EU is becoming weaker in its relationship vis-à-vis big continental states such as the US, China and Russia. What currency does the EU’s soft and normative power hold in a world of states that straightforwardly pursue their national interests? To what degree will the EU’s own strategic “self-perception” have to change in such a world? With the continued dominance of the “Big Three” in EU foreign policy (France, Germany and the UK), the pervasive rule of unanimity and a lack of unified European defence, is the EU well-placed to maintain its position as a “post-modern” bloc? A Citizen's Controversy with Nicole Gnesotto, Professor at the Conservatoire national des Arts et Métiers, and Robert Cooper, Director General for External and Politico-Military Affairs at the Council of the European Union. The debate was moderated by Pierre Defraigne, Executive Director of the Madariaga - College of Europe Foundation. On Thursday 1 July 2010, between 13:00 and 14:30 at the Madariaga Foundation: 14, avenue de la Joyeuse Entrée - 1040 Brussels. Read the Report |
