Abstract

The idea of the European Union as a lasting association of European democracies warranting a stable yet constantly evolving institutional framework was formulated in the Schuman Declaration and has remained the political corner-stone of the Union. Although the EU has enlarged through successive waves, this has also generated new tensions between its members, including among those willing to move towards closer integration and those determined to preserve the intactness of national sovereignty in core areas. Here, a multi-speed Europe, or at least a double-speed Europe, has the potential to advance further integration among only interested members. Also, institutionalizing a multispeed Europe would in fact simply recognize the existing working system in the EU.
