UK's June 2016 Brexit Referendum shocked politicians. They did not expect this Continental-wide crisis. Why? Over the years politicians have abused Europe's unique experiment in Democracy. The innovative plan of Robert Schuman, French Foreign Minister, brought an end to age-long warfare. Europe is now living in the longest period of peace in more than 2000 years. It brought unprecedented prosperity. Now Europe is in a crisis of trust. It economics is in confusion. Instead of splitting Europe, the book reveals that this crisis will force politicians to reform and correct the abuse and corruption that began with France's General de Gaulle. Instead of today's secretive and closed Councils and Committees, politicians will be obliged to open them. This could lead to an new Age of Prosperity for Europe. This eye-opening book is based on decades of research from a journalist based in Brussels and biographer of Robert Schuman. It is an essential guide to Europe's rich and satisfying future.
