Tomorrow's Europe
Describing the old Common Market, Walter Hallstein, the Commission's first President, remarked: "Anyone who does not believe in miracles in European affairs is no realist". Given the obstacles which lie in the path of further integration, perhaps it's time we all became realists. Walter Hallstein witnessed the 'miracle' of the Common Market come to fruition.This essay is based on a speech given at the London School of Economics on 12 June 1997. In this speech Niall FitzGerald re-affirms the case for Europe's nations working together to deliver peace and prosperity. He argues that for Tomorrow's Europe to be successful, three economic pillars must be in place.
