Towards a New European Impetus Post-Brexit

Europe is under attack. Populism and nationalism are rampant, the United Kingdom has left the European Union and public confidence in Europe is waning. How should it move forward? With that question, the author takes the reader behind the scenes and delves into the story of Europe: a story of ambitions and illusions. With his unique, personal insights from his experiences working in European institutions, he explores the future of Europe and proposes twelve priorities for action at a European level, which he calls the 'Twelve Labours of Hercules'. The book provides a positive answer to the question of whether Europe can still mean something to its citizens. The author encourages readers to develop their own vision of Europe and its future, and also invites them to critique Europe but, above all, engage with it.
