  2. EPISODE 1

    The future of Europe post-Coronavirus

    European integration has progressed with every crisis, and yet each one raises concerns about disintegration. The coronavirus is no different: it may contribute to new EU competences in health coordination and social protection but also to the raise of anti-European forces. Listen to our first debate with Alvaro Oleart, Catherine de Vries and Alberto Alemanno.

    The COVID19 economic crisis and the Eurozone

    The economic effects of coronavirus are second only to the medical impact. However, members of the Eurozone struggle to agree on a common approach to the incoming recession: whether Eurobonds, policies for recovery or funding social protection, the future of the Euro will be defined by the outcome of the crisis.

    What will happen to unemployment benefits in the EU?

    The immediate economic effect of COVID19 is a sharp increase in unemployment rates. As a result payments for the unemployed will become a significant part of EU member states budgets. The EU Commission has proposed a new programme called SURE. Is this the beginning of more direct EU involvement in national unemployment schemes? Will SURE be enough? Are other social protection measures also necessary?

    Political conflict and populism in Europe after COVID-19

    The COVID-19 health crisis has also caused a political earthquake in the EU. Does the crisis issue new lines of political conflict in Europe? How does it reflect on established lines of political division? Will neoliberalism survive the COVID-19 crisis? Will populism continue its rise? These questions, and many more, are addressed in this podcast.

    COVID19: a chance to close East-West gaps?

    COVID19 can be an opportunity to reduce economic and political gaps between the East and the West of Europe provided new policies and resources are found. As emergency powers deepen undemocratic developments and the EU tools seem limited, questions about rule of law conditionality will emerge.

  8. EPISODE 6

    The EU and the geopolitics of COVID19

    The von der Leyen Commission has claimed to be the first geopolitical Commission because of its ambition and realist approach to world affairs. The pandemic may foster more multilateral cooperation in search for the vaccine, but the recession may accelerate trade wars and nationalism.
