PAN EUROPE
The European Union is the largest regional association of suprastate, that conduсt a common policy in the spheres of trade, agriculture, transport, customs agreements. The world’s experience has shown that the supranational economy has gradually transformed from a free trade area to a full economic and political integration. It would be logical to assume that the future of Europe - is the creation of a single European State. Being a single State Europe will lose its main strength: in the context of globalization EU will have to create and preserve exclusivity and uniqueness of each nation of EU member state.
Integration processes in the European community suggest the best option of the EU expansion possibly its transformation into a Eurasian Union. Regarding the creation of a single state: Mikhail Bakunin spoke about the prospect of the European federation, or the same was said by Coudenhove Kallergi in his book "PANEVROPA." It will allow Europe to be united, while retaining their national identity. The EU member states are not prepared to absolute integrity (evidenced by the signing of the referendums on the "European Constitution" and the Lisbon Agreement.). But they are ready to be a powerful absolute force, united, indivisible, but national-identical!! This is its difference, it would allow the union not to fall victim to globalization, as it occurred to the greatest empires and alliances.
