| 520 | _aOne might be forgiven for thinking that the founding of The European Union is notexactly the stu that myths are made of? Not at all, for here it comes – though it isnot a myth, but a real story that only sounds like a myth: The 9th of May 1950 was theday when the destiny of European integration (began to take) took shape, with thedeclaration by the French foreign Minister Robert Schuman, aiming at the creation ofa European Coal and Steel Community. One can retrace the events of these historicalmoments day by day, sometimes hour by hour, the main actors emerging with highlyanimated proles, the tension mounting to thrilling heights – but nally the solutionis found! And this solution is, as much as it seems pragmatic, nothing less thanrevolutionary: It is – to use the words of the French foreign minister himself! – therst “breach into national sovereignty”. The political system of the EU can be traceddirectly back to this initial moment.Once the story of the 9th of May 1950 is told, one can contemplate it from dierentangles and learn a lot: What about the relationship between the external pressureof the Allies on France, in order to prepare for a common defense line of the Westernbloc – and the intra-European, Franco-German desire to overcome their old conictsand reach a fair tradeo of interests? What about the relationship between economicsand politics – was and is European integration mainly an economic project or doesit ultimately aim at a political union? And maybe the most dicult question: Wouldothers have taken dierent decisions from those of Jean Monnet, Robert Schumanand Konrad Adenauer? Could they have? And if it was their own free will to decide asthey did, what led them to do so?This book tells the story of the 9th of May, and the days leading up to it – and reectson the signicance of this historical moment, our “Europe Day”. | ||
