Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In 2025, the political economy of Europe as part of the world economy entered a new and unique constellation: with the possible end of the Cold War and global military powers concentrating outside the European peninsula, the European unification process is forced to rely on the rather diverse evolutionary economic dynamics of European countries. For the first time in history, these countries now have to start a self-imposed unification, which builds on the power of being diverse. Throughout history, Europe’s diversity has usually only been treated as a deficiency. This Special Issue provides views on such a process and is made up of the work of a selection of leading economists from different European countries. If European unification succeeds from this fresh attempt, then it will clearly be a role model for the world economy.
This Special Issue will collect the latest perspectives on the changed geopolitical situation in 2025.
Prof. Dr. Hardy Hanappi
Guest Editor
