Description
Summary:The EU enlargement raises many questions to Member States, among which the institutional framework of the future Europe is a major topic. For the candidate countries, the enlargement raises at least two major issues: (a) what the new Europe would look like and how much welcome they are in; (b) what efforts should they commit to cope with the existing gaps to become equal partners and not just poor kin? The report debates Europe’s concern for enlargement as mirrored through the Romanian eyes. While discussion goes on about Federalism vs. a Europe of Nations, Romania strives to cope with her imbalances, inherited from the past and developed by a stop-and-go reform decade. For the candidate countries, the vision on the future Europe cannot be political only. The success of the enlargement should go through a wider reform than EU institutions and their weighted power by national parliaments or governments. It must be also built by taking care of the right policies to address economic distortions across Europe.
