E nevoie de UE?

Tot mai multe voci spun ca idealul european de a crea o superconglomeratie de state sucomba sub greutatea realitatilor economice si politice a celor mai multe state membre. Grecia a dat tonul si nu e pentru prima data cand statul elen face pielea gaina germanilor care par a sa se fi saturat sa sustina din contributiile propriiilor cetateni coruptia, impotenta birocratica si politica a urmasilor lui Aristotel. Intr-un fel e de inteles. Germania, sa nu uitam a facut mari eforturi de reconstructie dupa al doilea razboi mondial si au ajuns in foarte scurt timp cea mai dezvoltata tara din Europa. Mai sunt si alte tari ingrijorate cum ar fi Olanda sau Angliea care nu mai suporta limba de lemn a Bruxellului si fara ipocrizie pun degetul pe rana. Dar a fost vreodata o Europa unita, e intrebarea care ne-o putem pune, fireste fara a discuta problema Romaniei care este oarecum marginala si irelevanta in efortul de constructie a unui suprastat european. Care a fost motivatia unificarii statelor europene, ar fi prima intrebare. Romanticii spun, ca exista o identitate comuna, una europeana si ca aceasta a fost fundamentul unificarii europene. Pana una alta comunitatea europeana a functionat si inca o face articulata pe un model economic care a fost gandita ca o contrabalanta la economia americana si mai recent cea chineza. Eu as fi totusi curios care este argumentul identitatii europene, adica, cu alte cuvinte despre ce tip de comunitate vorbim: una culturala, una in jurul principiilor politice, una religioasa. Fara indoiala le putem discuta pe toate pe rand dar ma tem ca totusi diferentele intre statele europene sunt majore si ca teoria unei identitati europene (in forma, poate, a multiculturalismului) este pura utopie. Si totusi s-a putut, UE exista, dar cum? Eu personal cred ca e vorba strict de o uniune economica si ca in lipsa a unui alt liant care sa legitimeze o astfel de structura superstatala ea nu va rezista multa vreme. Iata moneda unica are mari probleme si n-as vrea sa intru in detalii, se stie in mare care e cauza, dar ma intreb: e nevoie de UE in forma in care ea exista de acest monstru birocratic destul de anemic cand trebuie sa reactioneze la provocari reale? Ce s-ar intampla daca Germania revine la marca germana, italia la lira etc etc. si daca fiecare stat membru va incerca singura sa-si gestioneze criza? Nimic. Eu cred ca teama ca UE se destrama este nejustificata. Sigur e un vis frumos si eu sunt in totalitate pentru o comunitate europeana, "o unitate in diversitate" dar pana nu stabilim concret ce ne leaga eu cred ca si vechea formula a unei Europe "dezbinate" poate supravietui fara probleme.
