I grew up in Germany and studied in England. Brexit is, simply, gutting. But Europeans who want to make their project work now need to look in the mirror. The reality of the EU has drifted far from the values on which was built. Let's fix that. [Thread]https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2020/01/future-european-union/605839/ …

Europeans owe a huge debt of gratitude to the courage and imagination of the EU's founders. But today's politicians take the wrong lessons from their predecessors. Instead of emulating their imagination, they treat EU institutions as holy relics. This immobilism is dangerous.

1) is an often repeated line, politicians regularly calling for more subsidiarity and yet it is never clarified what that actually means. Which powers should return to nation states? Foreign policy? Defence policy? Oh wait...

HU and PL are quite successful at building an illiberal state, so they have arguably a lot of freedom to do what they want. A mismatch in power distribution as stated in 1) isn't the problem, it's quite the opposite.

Pick one: 1) More democratic = more federalist = giving power to EP. 2) Return power to states = more intergovernmental council power = less democratic.

"Make EU institutions more democratic and return some powers to nation states where appropriate." It seems hardly possible to achieve both of these goals at the same time.
