What next for... democracy in Europe? The Institute of Ideas - London, UK Battle of Ideas: What Next for...Democracy in Europe? at the 2007 Battle of Ideas conference hosted by the Institute of Ideas.When is a constitution not a constitution but a reform treaty? Maybe when politicians want to avoid a referendum they fear they will lose. Come and debate the future of the EU.

Europe, America, and the Continental Drift Heritage Foundation - Washington, D.C. Senator Marcello Pera examines remedies for addressing the cultural challenges confronting Europe.Why does Europe appear to be in a sort of a political continental drift with respect to America? Perhaps because Europe is challenged by a triple crisis: economic, political, and cultural. Economically, Europe is becoming less competitive on the world scene due to its state-centered ideology. Politically, the European Union represents an inextricable web of bureaucracy that not only confounds the average European citizen but lawmakers as well.
