Book Description
La Conferencia sobre el Futuro de Europa es el mayor ejercicio de debate ciudadano abierto en la historia de la integración europea, con vistas a generar una serie de conclusiones que permitan en un futuro la reforma de los Tratados constitutivos. En un momento decisivo para la Unión Europea, cuando se enfrenta a numerosas crisis y retos, desde el ámbito sanitario, migratorio, económico, medioambiental, energético o defensivo; el proyecto europeo necesita replantearse cuál es el futuro que le conviene en el corto y medio plazo.La Conferencia traslada la responsabilidad a la ciudadanía, otorgándole una oportunidad única para conocer sus impresiones, deseos, proyectos o soluciones que la Unión Europea debería emprender, para dar respuesta a esos retos o crisis que se presentan en el siglo XXI.En un ejercicio colectivo, del que ya han participado más de 35.000 personas, un conjunto de académicos y expertos en temas europeos presentamos esta obra con objeto de contribuir al conocimiento y la difusión de la Conferencia. Nuestro principal meta es la consolidación del proyecto europeo, que necesita de los ciudadanos, para avanzar y culminar su construcción federal, tal y como deseaban los padres fundadores de las Comunidades Europeas.
