Keeping Europe’s climate policy on track

by Samuel Fankhauser, Web exclusive

On 6 March, the European Union submitted its commitments for the new global climate treaty that’s due to be finalised in Paris.

The autumn 2016 issue of Europe’s World focuses on the fallout from the decision of the British people to leave the EU. The multiple consequences of Brexit are analysed by series of leading politicians, academics and influencers. Luuk van Middelaar, author of “The Passage to Europe”, says that the EU needs to rebalance the freedoms it offers and the protection it aims to provide. Finnish Finance Minister Olli Rehn looks at the consequences for the eurozone, calling for reform that will help deliver growth and legitimacy. Leading MEP Danuta Hübner warns of the impact of Brexit on the EU’s trade deals, while former Chinese ambassador to the UK Ma Zhengang asks whether Brexit means the end of a fleeting “golden era” for Sino-British relations. Portuguese MEP Maria Matias casts a critical eye on the EU institutions, asking the structures of the European Union are capable of delivering the changes needed to restore trust in Europe, while László Andor argues that Brussels exhibits failures of leadership as much as structural weaknesses. Integration is another key theme. Muhterem Aras, President of the Baden-Wüttemberg Parliament, points to her own success story as an example of Europe embracing ideas of integration and diversity. Martijn Pluim calls for a more rational and less selfish Europe, while Luxembourg’s Family Affairs Minister Corinne Cahen highlights the schemes to manage integration in largely-immigrant Luxembourg. In the EU’s neighbourhood, Alida Vračić and Denisa Kostivicova look at the impact of Brexit on the Balkans and enlargement, while Harvard professor Calestous Juma examines the EU’s policies towards Africa. And Nathalie Tocci, Bruno Maçães and Filip Ejdus cast their eye over the EU’s Global Strategy.
