Despite the fact that the European Union faces the biggest crisis since its foundation, on July 1st, 2013, a new state joined the club. For the foreseeable future, Croatia will probably be the last to join; at the same time creating a barrier between the once connected states of the Balkans. Paraphrasing Freud\u2019s famous question – \u2018What does a woman want?\u2019 – one of the greatest European philosophers of our day, Slavoj \u017di\u017eek, joins forces with the young Croatian philosopher, Sre\u0107ko Horvat, to examine the burning question \u2018What does Europe want?\u2019<\/strong>
\nInstead of a peace-project, the European Union is increasingly turning into a warzone: whether it be the expulsion of immigrants or riots in Paris and London, or European interventions to bring \u201cmore democracy\u201d to Libya or Syria. Instead of leaving Europe to the enemies, \u017di\u017eek and Horvat reflect on the fight for a different idea of Europe; one that embraces all its peoples equally.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n

”Each philosopher\u2019s particular deployment of current events, popular culture, and political history lends the book a conversational tone, but the connective tissue between the essays is the authors\u2019 understanding of the bigger picture in Europe. \u017di\u017eek and Horvat provide a deeply engaging and insightful polemic on how Europe went wrong\u2014and how it can recover. ”<\/em><\/p>\n
