Softcover. Zustand: Fine. Since the signing of the Treaties of Rome in 1957, Western European history has been marked by the integration and enlargement of European institutions. The European Union has become a crucial pillar for the security and stability of Europe, but its essential functions can only continue if it expands its influence beyond current borders. The European agenda is now focused on integration, with membership prospects serving as a successful tool for shaping transitions in East Central Europe. The upcoming enlargement necessitates a deepening of EU integration, which should be addressed through the EU Convention. As the EU prepares to welcome ten new member states, developments in Europe remain dynamic. Countries beyond the EU's future borders in Eastern Europe and the Balkans are engaged in a complex process of national consolidation, market economy transition, and strengthening parliamentary democracy. These processes carry risks, including the potential for authoritarian regimes and armed conflict in Southeastern Europe, which directly affect European security. However, some regions are making significant progress toward Western standards, suggesting that reducing Eastern and Southeastern Europe to mere risks could lead to a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Over the course of that time, the institutions now known as the European Union have become a major pil lar for the security and stability for Europe as a whole. These essential functions can only be perpetuated if the Union can project its capacities and capabilities beyond its current borders. Today's European agenda is defined by integration. Offering prospects for membership in the EU has been a successful instrument for helping shape the tran sition in East Central Europe The imminent first round of enlargement also calls for a deepening of EU integration, which should be resolved through the EU Convention. While the European Union is preparing for ten new member states, developments in Europe are far from standing still. The countries beyond the EU's future borders in Eastern Europe and the Balkans are undertaking a threefold process of national con solidation, transition to a market economy and strengthening parliamentary democ racy. These processes entail risks that range from authoritarian regimes to armed es calation in Southeastern Europe. These risks have a direct impact on European secu rity and stability. At the same time, some areas of internal transition are making seri ous strides toward Western standards. For this reason, simply reducing Eastern and Southeastern Europe to a set of risks threatens to create a self-fulfilling prophecy.
