Tóm tắt

Mặc dù châu Âu đã phải đối mặt với những thử thách trong cuộc khủng hoảng tài chính và những chính sách thắt lưng buộc bụng sau đó, lục địa châu Âu vẫn được coi là một trong những khu vực ổn định nhất trên hành tinh. Tuy nhiên, bài báo này lập luận rằng có những xu hướng toàn diện ở châu Âu mà nếu không được giải quyết, sẽ tương hỗ với nhau để gây ra sự bất ổn. Bài báo áp dụng lý thuyết dân chủ đồng chia của Arend Lijphart, hay còn gọi là hòa giải tinh hoa, và lý thuyết trò chơi hai cấp của Robert Putnam vào sự hội nhập châu Âu, sử dụng những lý thuyết này như một lăng kính để xem xét sự phát triển ngày càng sâu sắc của bất ổn trong môi trường châu Âu: sự suy giảm dân số, di cư, chủ nghĩa dân túy, và sự thiếu hụt giáo dục cũng như lao động. Các xu hướng này được phân tích về quy mô và tính bền vững của chúng cũng như tác động xã hội, kinh tế và chính trị của chúng đối với các quốc gia thành viên EU, nhấn mạnh những lựa chọn mà tầng lớp tinh hoa phải thực hiện để điều hướng thành công các xu hướng này và bảo tồn dự án châu Âu.
