Concluzia de la lansarea cartilor a fost ca un
asemenea proiect de
cercetare ar trebui sprijinit si ar da de munca timp
de 10 ani multor
cercetatori.
 De aceea la cele doua intalniri organizate de IER am
intrebat in mod
provocator  delegatia japoneza si pe colega din
Germania daca Humane
security/Human security  poate fi un model alternative
de securitate in
actuala configuratie de putere mondiala...Europa
aspira la titlul de actor
international dar pe ce valori se bazeaza? Este de
ajuns numai conceptul de
Good governance?
 Nimeni nu a stiut raspunde sau nici macar sa
defineasca acesti termeni dar
macar am indemnat la reflectie.
 Concluzia este ca inca suntem in faza de copilarie a
dezvoltarii sociale a
umanitatii.
Din cate cunosc eu nu exista inca centre de cercetare
in lume care sa
incerce sa imagineze un nou model social bazat pe
valori noi universale.
Va invit si pe voi la reflectie si astept reactiile
voastre mature.

3.1.New humane security paradigm as a common
denominator of all European
actors against common challenges
This subchapter deals with the concept of Humane
security and his potential
positive impact on the quality of life; first section
put the security
redefinition need in the international context, second
tries to define
humane security and third shows the importance of
humane security in
transforming the losers of European Integration in
winners, as a potential
modality for a positive scenarios of Integration, as
win-win game.
"World politics should not be viewed as a historically
frozen process of
power-hungry states, but rather as a dynamic process
of interaction among
individuals, groups, states and international
institutions, all of which are
capable of adapting their sense of self-interest."
After the Cold War the militarised conception of
security was challenged by
multifaceted and holistic conceptions  like humane
security, concept which
lacks a clear definition and any agreed upon measures
on it. We have to
notice that the Military security failed to ensure the
territorial security
of a nation-state. The collapse of so called communism
and of Soviet
hegemony in Central and Eastern Europe, removed the
immediate military
threat. The replacement of the major military threats
from the East by the
multilevel and multidimensional threats has lent great
instability to the
European Security System, which was not prepared to
deal with it, in term of
competences, policies and institutions. (See annex 2
for the collective
risks of globalization.)
Because Europeans face so many security challenges and
promising
opportunities, all of which compete for higher
attention and resources, it
will be difficult to deal with non-traditional
threats. However, some of
them will not be ignored for long time. Individual
security can no longer be
satisfied only through military measures; it needs
multidimensional
understanding.
Humane Security is difficult to be achieved in actual
existing international
system mainly dominated by sovereign states. A current
state - centred
system has been inadequate to provide security and
welfare as we have
analysed in the first and second chapter. Nation
states risk losing their
external and internal sovereignty. In our logic of
humane security nation
states have to reorder priorities, problem is what
criteria? These could be:
The sovereignty of the Human Person, Participation in
decision- making and
Response to Unmet Human Needs.
The following issues needs the priority of governments
and international
organisations:
Hunger, housing, health care, education, employment,
environment, war
prevention, crime prevention, care of the aged, racial
justice, women's
rights, religious freedom, penal reform, urban
planning, population,
democratic participation, prevention of alienation and
addiction.
Most of the leaders would insist that they personally
embrace the above
agenda. Pragmatically, however, these issues are
subordinated to national
security priorities. In the present world system,
national policies
developed primarily around the above criteria would
threaten the ability of
their nations to survive.
The lights of Humane development will remain out for a
majority of humankind
until the emergence of a world-order system. It is
important to emphasize
that we are not advocating constant mobilization for
national security. It
is rather a question of recognizing the reality that
present corporate
priorities and elite rule are not primarily due to
ideological or personal
demons. The world does not need more demonology. What
is needed is
objectivity - not the rationalize fatalistic
acceptance of the status quo,
but to identify the all sources of powerlessness: of
leaders as well as of
citizens. The surest way to entrench the status quo is
to focus too
exclusively on the powerlessness of the people and to
rely on demonology at
the cost of a more holistic analysis.
The definition of security issues, the way in which
they were analyzed and
the policies that resulted were the fruits of the
dominant geopolitical and
ideological atmosphere during the Cold War period.
Security concept has a
strong political base and it changes according to it
Security continues to be calculated by the degree of
"destructive capacity
possessed in relation to an expected enemy. "The
achievement of security in
a global setting is largely reduced to the management
of boundaries of the
territorial state- the degree of capacity to keep
unwanted persons, ideas,
things out, and to keep what is wanted within.
To extent that security is globalised, it is
associated with establishing
the conditions that best enable the expansion of gross
planetary product and
stimulate the growth of world trade within a framework
stabilized by
policies that produce the triple indictment"
What is remarkable about this geopolitical image of
security is its
durability, one that traverses the distinction drawn
earlier between modern,
state-centric geopolitics and post-modern
market-geared geopolitics. The
absence of critical self-reflection is terrible. What
needs to be
acknowledged here, among other challenging
perspectives, is the relevance of
feminist voices from around the world in fashioning
other possible responses
to the actual. The revision of security is crucial to
the all enterprises of
global civil society and the shaping of the global
polity in accordance with
the criteria of humane governance.
Subrahmanyam clearly identifies this element of
necessity in the following
passage:
"Either humanity unites to survive, or it is bound to
face a bleak future.
The strategy of a non-violent and nuclear free world
has no alternative, if
future generations are to survive in condition of
sustainable development.
We of this generation have to stark choice before us.
Either we become
saviours of our posterity or its executioners. Either
we opt for life or
shatter the future of mankind."
This sense of urgency is here affirmed. Also to be
underscored in the idea
that continued democratisation depends on the
establishment of a security,
which radically breaks with perceptions and practices
that have given
substance to geopolitics throughout modern history.
It is obvious that to initiate a discussion of
security on this radical note
is to highlight the distance separating such a
position from the mainstream
thought in the North and from the outlook of most
governing elites in the
South. And it is equally predictable that it will be
dismissed thereby as
"utopian". To respond helpfully to the challenge ahead
it is necessary to
summon the intellectual and political courage to face
the depth and extent
of the problem that faces humanity.
What, exactly, is meant by the term humane security
and why humane security
is so important in a optimist scenarious of
Integration. What is humane
security? «There are two basic aspects to humane
security - freedom from
fear and freedom from want. Freedom from want is no
less important than
freedom from fear because his objectives are to ensure
the survival and
dignity of individuals as human beings. The
epoch-making 1994 UNDP
Development Report discussed the concept of human
security in depth, and
identified seven main categories of human security -
economic security (or
freedom from poverty); food security (freedom from
hunger), health security
(freedom from disease), environmental security (the
availability of clean
water and air, for example), personal security
(freedom from fear of
violence, crimes, drugs), community security (freedom
to participate in
family life and one's ethnic group), and political
security (freedom to
exercise one's basic human rights)».
Why is humane security important for the optimistic
scenarious of
Integration? What is the trend in Europe regarding the
social fracture of
Globalisation? Any balanced view, the Europe success
was supported by social
settlments that allowed equity and efficiency.
Employment relations
institutions and process associated with this model of
development are under
strain. They suffer of crises of economic
functionality and out of line with
new emerging patterns of economic and social life.
Despite the social forces
that identify themselfs with values of The European
social model (see annex
8a) there is a tendency to defend inherited
institutions rather than to
construct new forms of social solidarity compatible
with the complexity of
modern economic life. In his book Paul Teague points
out that "any
innovations need to address three important themes:
the democratization of
the EU, the future association between the
nation-state and economic
citizenship; and the institutional reform of the
labour-market governance".
( see annex 8b)
In a stark prediction European Governments will soon
have to choose between
a free market and free society with the top concern
about social justice, by
placing the organisation of society secondary to
business activity may not
be an efficient model of economic competition. The
political game between
neo-liberal Europe and Social Europe is still on. The
key benchmarks, which
could test if human security has been revived, would
be: lower unemployment,
better labour market access and more democratic and
participatory work
places. Some humane security concerns can no longer be
kept hidden from
critical scrutiny. The performance of governments and
international
organisations will be judged increasingly by the
extent to which they
seriously and effectively deal with humane security
concerns. We hope that
Europe could marry again, economic efficiency with
social justice, in a
feminin perspective different of masculin anglo-saxon
perspective.
3.2.Sustainable development as a common denominator
for all European Actors
and new opportunity
First section of this subchapter will make an
anthology of the actual trends
of defining sustainable development in contrast with
development concept
used in standard economic theory, actual position of
EU concerning
sustainable development and the implications of it for
the employment in
Europe and finally participation as an important
aspect of sustainable
development. We have chosen to do it by using Internet
resources and
relevant literature. We will try to make a synthesis
of all of them for
economic reasons. (see annex 9)
In standard economic theory, Development implies both
quantitative change
(growth in Gross Domestic Product) and qualitative
change (transformation
from a pre-capitalist economy based on agriculture to
a capitalist
industrial economy) etc. Theory of sustainable
development involves both a
critic of quantitative GDP measure and a different
view of qualitative
transformation. The goals of sustainable development
include a harmonization
of economic, social and environmental goals:
Economic - an economically sustainable system must be
able to produce goods
and services on a continuing basis, to maintain
manageable levels of
government and external debt, and avoid extreme sector
imbalances that
damage agriculture or industrial production.
Environmental - an environmentally sustainable system
must maintain a stable
resource base, avoiding overexploitation of renewable
resources systems or
environmental sink functions and depleting non
renewable resources only to
the extent that investment is made in adequate
substitutes: this include
maintenance of biodiversity, atmospheric stability,
and other ecosystem
functions not ordinarily classed as economic
resources.
Social - a socially sustainable system must achieve
fairness in distribution
and opportunity, adequate provision of social
services, including health,
including health and education, gender equality, and
political
accountability and participation. These three elements
of sustainability
introduce many potential complications to the
original, simple definition of
economic development.
This new concerns for development will create new
opportunities for job
creation in the area of Social and Environment. It
could be a good
opportunity for CEEC countries to get job in this new
domains. Together with
sharing job opportunity and highest wages strategy
will contribute to
bridging the gap between Western and Eastern
disparities, following the
logic of balance in a chine's way.
EU has a strategy for sustainable development but
specially for sustainable
trade and what is relevant for our thesis is the fact
that EU recognizes the
necessity to work together for achieving this aim, on
his declaration at the
World Summit for sustainable development from
Johannesburg, September 2002.
"Economic growth along side environmental and social
concern: Sustainable
development demands a fundamental change in the way we
live our lives. In a
complete break with the past this calls for a major
reorientation of public
and private behavior and thinking. The challenge is to
bond economic growth
with social concerns and to decouple economic
development from environmental
degradation. It calls for creative, long-term policy
making, efficient and
responsible use of resources, cost-effective
environmental policy and
cleaner technology. Governments, business, and
citizens need to work
together to create the conditions in which sustainable
development can
happen."

To bridge the gap between the popular agenda and
elitist agenda of Global
governance we need to find common values upon which a
viable future can be
built. We start by considering five aspects of
sustainable development
analized by UNDP: Empowerment, Cooperation, Equity,
Sustainability, and
Security. Related to these aspects  are nine
principles, which could help
political institutions to achieve sustainable
development, as suggested by
UNDP: Participation, Transparency, Responsivness,
Consensus orientation,
Equity, Effectivness and Efficiency, Accountability,
Strategic vision. We
would prefere to choose to speak on Participation
forced by the economy of
our thesis.True democracy is characterised by
horizontal processes across a
broad spectrum of relationships, in contrast with
parliamentary democracies
based on vertical hierarchies.
The euphoria developed over events in Eastern Europe
after the fall of one
party political system a decade ago has masked the
irreparable inadequacies
in the new capitalist democratic system. The
fundamental proposition of
democracy needs to focus on an ongoing process than
the structure of
representation. Egalitarian interaction have to be a
new democratic
principle in considering that development of Western
democratic systems in
the 19th century coincided with expansion of European
Colonialism. Economic
decentralisation is a more appropriate form of
integrating nature and
society. Sensitivity towards the human subject in
economic planning shall
overcome foundations laid down by modern economies. It
would reduce the
widespread global structural violence maintained by
the political and
economic elites of dominant Western powers.
Next subchapter will try to put light on the concept
of global governance
and his relevance for curbing the actual "social
fracture" of Globalisation,
big threat for International security. The conflicting
logics of actual
actors are dangereous and the problem is how to make
them to coexist, what
would be the appropiate mechanism and strategy to make
them to work together
with common agenda, taking into account their
conflicting interests. It
would not be enough for each state or people to have
its own vision of a
better future, in our case not only the Countries from
CEEC space have to
have a strategy for the accession into EU, or ERT a
strategy for a free
market, but the EU as a whole, as a new political
entity able to deal with
all these challenges. EU, as an international actor,
has the economic and
logistic power to do it, to transform its self on an
entity dealing with
sustainable development using humane governance
mechanism, creating the
framework of working together for all actors.
3.3.Global humane governance as a counter hegemonic
project, from European
Civil Society perspective
Global humane governance will be the subject of
discussion on this
subchapter. First section points out the necessity of
creating such a system
in order to avoid the blaming and also the
prescriptive top-down approach of
global governance after analyzing the world order
present models. Third
section discouses the conflict between long-term
interest and short
interest, common values of the actual actors involved
on international
politics. Sustainable development and Humane security
transform the global
geogovernance concept in Humane geogovernance and the
fourth section will
try to explain the prospect for Humane governance.
Our thesis will only present general ideas because the
discussion needs more
space. We give more space to the prospect for humane
security, which
eventually will be part of the new security identity
of Europe, civilian
approach (see the non-violent peace force
network-making the bridge between
USA and Europe).
In order to find a global humane governance system, we
need first a
constitution developed around the following functions:
disarmament,
involving the protection of human rights; social
justice, environmental
protection; economic and social development; and the
regulation of
international processes such as trade, transportation
and communication.
What the new world-order models have in common is a
commitment to the basic
human values as fundamental criteria of world order.
They begin with common
problems and then formulate functional institutions to
cope with those
problems. In today's nation-state competition, those
values that conflict
with national security goals have little chance to
become operative on any
significant scale.
The starting point of each Model or governance is the
necessity to have as a
common denominator but the problem is which one?
Sustainable development and
Humane security for all actors of international system
and the Right to
development can be the key words, as integrative
concepts of all human needs
for the humanity as a whole. In public policy debates,
few argue openly in
terms of their own self-interest. Everything is
couched in terms of general
interest.
Fourth section deals with humane governance opposite
concept of
geo-governance. Humane geo-governance is the preferred
variant of
geo-governance. Humane geo-governance is not a
structure to be blueprinted,
but a process of engagement that is guided by a
principle of non-violence.
Humane governance is a preferred form of governance
being a process and a
goal, which emphasizes the achievement of
comprehensive rights for all
peoples on earth. We have to worn that our passivity
will ensure the triumph
of the G-7 view of the human future. The prospect for
human governance is
urgency. (see annex 10)
In sum, Humane governance emphasizes people-centered
criteria of success, as
measured by declines in poverty, violence and
pollution and by increasing
adherence to human rights and constitutional
practices, especially in
relation to vulnerable segments of society, as well as
by axiological shifts
away from materialist/consumerist and patriarchal
conceptions of human
fulfillment. The perspectives of humane governance
stress the accountability
of elites and the participation by the peoples of the
world and their
directly elected representatives. It is necessary to
explore the meaning of
humane governance in a series of conceptual and policy
settings, as well as
some implications of counter-projects to shape
geo-governance in more
beneficial ways than those resulting from global
market forces.
The political imaginations of the rich and powerful
are still caught up in
greed and by efforts to retain short-run advantage. As
a consequence, the
historical opening at the end of the Cold War has been
largely squandered,
being treated as one more opportunity to consolidate
power and wealth.
If Globalisation brought negative aspects, the
positive aspect of
Globalisation is that it has brought an active civil
society, fighting for
more democracy and greater social justice.
3.4.Conclusions and perspectives on the future project
of the European Civil
Society
We could conclude that a civilization the more it
advances in sacrificing
ideals and values to interests, the more perverse and
degenerate is. A
"civilization" that conveniently and unscrupulously
subordinates values to
interests is not really worthy of being called a
civilization. No matter how
it may develop its material aspects, it will remain
empty at its human core,
which is always moral-spiritual based. In this regard,
world politics is
shifting from a horizontal axis of Right vs. Left, to
a vertical axis of
economic materialist values vs. ecological, feminist,
spiritual values; and
the central "struggle" for the next generation.
A hegemonic project should be developed around issues
of a humane security
system via the OSCE and an economic strategy, which
considers good
environmental and social standards and full employment
to be more important
than efficiency, competition and high levels of
economic growth. In this
respect, it is important to challenge the neo-liberal
wisdom, which has
acquired a status of natural truth during the
processes of globalisation.
This will not be easy and requires a long war of
position. Institutions
should be set up, which could provide the platform for
organic intellectuals
and for the development and promotion of an
alternative to neo-liberalism.
Ministers and representatives stressed the crucial
role of NGOs as key
non-state actors partners in developing, advocating,
building and
implementing humane security . The question is if
these social forces are
prepared to face the actual hegemonic ongoing process
of embedded
neoliberalism. Let's sum these potential forces of
Europe and their input to
this coalition already in formation, before answering
to this question:
· Pressure groups - Redistribution of benefits and
losses resulting from
lobby activities and these influential pressure groups
both in the CEEC and
the EU itself can affect the position of losers and
winners.
· Trade union- Intensified co-operation between trade
unions within Europe,
including the sector level: on co-ordination in
respect of wages, working
conditions and social regulation complemented by much
closer co-ordination
of national economic and social policies, going beyond
neo-liberal
solutions.
· Nation-states - particularly decision-making elites
could be ready to
participate on this coalition with new ideas able to
relegitimise their
authority because even the most powerful nation-states
- are no longer able
to fulfill the purpose for which they were created
(elected) consequently
not longer legitimate.
The exploitation of the sphere of reproduction may
result in either a
nationalist, reactionary response led by extreme-right
parties such as the
Austrian Freedom Party, or a progressive
internationalist response as
indicated in the programmes of Green parties and a
broad array of social
movements. Recent demonstrations during the Carnival
Against Capitalism
(London, June 1999) as well as mobilisation against
the World Trade
Organisation (Seattle. November 1999) and the World
Bank and International
Monetary Fund (Washington, April 2000; Prague,
September 2000) are examples
of progressive internationalist response. An important
step in building a
more viable human future is to identify all the
sources and causes of our
present powerlessness. For this purpose we have to
examine the report
between: Legal justice / Social justice: Legal justice
is conformity to laws
passed by a legislative body. Such justice may no have
relationship to
social justice which is conformity to natural laws
that do not depend upon
human legislation, i.e. inalienable rights to food,
dignity and
self-determination. In fact, in many cases, legal
justice is in direct
conflict with social justice. A major task in our days
is to develop a
process and system in which the criterion of legal
justice is social
justice. This is a big challenge and opportunity at
the same time for
lawyers, social scientists and practitioners to help
this project of civil
society, as noble mission.
What is common to all actors is that the criterion of
human development is
shelved "for the duration". The duration here is not
the short -term
reality. Rather, this duration is here to stay until a
global security
system with functional institutions capable of dealing
with rampant global
forces is developed. Some of our friends have
counseled us that to speak of
the logic of national security mobilization and of
corporate elite rules is
to furnish "the haves" with the rationale needed to
preserve their power
just at a time when they are under attack from every
side. What is needed,
they argue, is even greater pressure from the people.
Such advice does not
dig deeply enough in its search for a solution. As
long as the obsolete
world system continues unchanged, the logic of
national security
mobilization will remain operative as a major obstacle
to goals of fuller
humane development.
FINAL CONCLUSIONS
The theoretical approach of explanation of European
Integration is out dated
because neo-functionalism and intregovernmentalism
can't take into account
the wider structure of Integration, namely the global
structural change and
the post-Cold War context. Globalisation is
characterised by two interlinked
processes, the transnationalisation of finance and
production at the
material level and, a shift from Keynesian to
Monetarism as a driving force
of Globalisation and European integration, from a
political economy
perspective. The post War international economic order
in the Western world
was a compromise between the principle of economic
liberalism and national
interventionism, called "embedded neoliberalism".
Consequently, of equal
concern is what globalization does to democracy.
Globalisation, as it has
been advocated, often seems to replace the old
dictatorship of national
elites with new dictatorship of international finance
and this is big threat
for the state and personal sovereignty. To overcome
the theoretical
impotence, we need a theoretical model able to explain
integration and to
democratize the actual geo-governance for the
realization of human rights.
The humane governance prospect is urgency and our
thesis has tried to
propose an embryo of it.
The focus on class struggle was the heuristic model
for understanding
structural change and how CEEC have been affected by
global structural
change after the Cold War. The structure of the thesis
reflects the struggle
between transnational actors ERT- power in production,
in coalition with
EU - as a soft superpower, power in state as a
balancer between this two
emergent coalitions of hard power, on one side and the
coalition of soft
power, represented by social power, so called civil
society, on the other
side. The principal question was if the civil society
is ready to form a
counter-hegemonic bloc at the European level in
alliance with CEE
governments, able to face the actual hegemonic bloc
driven by embedded
neo-liberalism. The answer is negative from two
reasons: the actual European
Civil society is manipulated by the EU by
institutionalization of the civic
dialog via the ESC, for the preservation of the
status-quo and the other
reason is the lack of financier independence, logistic
and internal problem
of democratization of these civic society entities
from both sides Western
and Eastern Europe. The creation of counter hegemonic
bloc would be possible
at the International level and we can't make any
prediction yet. The actual
tendency at the European level is for polarization not
for polarity and this
represents a big threat for the soft security model of
Europe. Therefore a
marriage between Social Europe and neo-liberalism has
to be a priority for
the new identity of Europe, to curb the eventual
polarization of social
forces of all Europe. Europe could be a model of
global humane governance
for humane security and sustainable development, and
the recent White paper
on Governance and Strategy for sustainable development
shows clear signals
of this political will. Europe has humanistic values,
material capabilities
and institutions to make a difference in the World, as
a feminine soft
answer to the paradox of Democracy (spreading
democracy in very undemocratic
way) and Security dilemma. The question is how to make
all this actors work
together taking into account their divergent interest.
The solution is to
find the values, which are commons for all actors, as
sustainable human
development including humane markets and humane
security and cooperative
behavior and culture. Our continent has tradition in
Christian message and
this represents an important value, which will
transform integration into a
real win - win scenarios as peaceful conflict
resolution soft model. A shift
from horizontal logic of Left and Right to a vertical
common logic of
ecology, feminism and sustainable, equitable and
democratic development is
already in process at the theoretical discourse.
Development is not about
helping a few people get rich or creating a handful of
pointless protected
industries that only benefit the country's elite, for
the urban rich and
leaving the rural poor in their misery. Humane
development is about
transforming societies, improving the lives of the
poor, enabling everyone
to have a chance to success and access to health care
and education. This
sort of development won't happen if only a few people
dictate the policies a
country must follow. Making sure that democratic
decisions are made means
ensuring that a broad range of economists, officials,
and experts from CEEC
are actively involved in the debate in a new model of
global humane
governance. It also means that there must be broad
participation that goes
well beyond the experts and politicians, so the
democratization of the
actual geo-governance and ESC institutionalized such a
civil dialog and this
represents a great opportunity. But still the people
in Western countries
escape their responsibilities stating that transition
countries must take
charge. We need some time for the reactualization of
our humanistic European
tradition in new ideology.
In conclusion global mobility capital and production
in a world of open
economies have made the central policies of European
social democracy
unworkable . By so doing they have made today's mass
unemployment a problem
without a simple solution. The monetarist theories
that presently dominate
the world's central banks and transnational financial
institutions deny that
any trade-off of price stability with full employment
can be achieved.
We assumed that a shift on the theoretical discourse
could produce a change
in real life. This was the motivation of our thesis at
the deeper structure.
Let's sum the perspectives on the opportunities and
challenges of the
European Enlargement.
>From the EU perspective the enlargement towards CEEC
is evaluated as a
challenge for his strategy of Enlargement, for ERT as
an opportunity for a
free market strategy, from CEEC perspective as an
opportunity for filling
the vacuum of security and their impotence to assure
sustainable development
in the actual context, from the Civil Society
perspective, European
integration can be evaluated as an opportunity for a
new counter-hegemonic
project, for global governance for humane security and
human development
oriented, and organic intellectuals have the noble
mission of the
construction of the anti-hegemonic Project, in a
neo-Gramscian terms. All
this actors are winners from their perspective.
In sum the big challenges for ERT are the job creation
for overcoming the
European crises of unemployment and the disparities
between East and West,
demonstrating on their perspective that integration is
win-win scenarious
and thus public opinion has to support this process.
The real challenge would be the adaptation of the
ongoing geo-governance to
the realization of human rights as we stated before.
This is a big challenge
and opportunity at the same time.
For millions of people from CEEC and Western Europe
globalisation has not
worked and they are losers. Many have actually been
made worse off, as they
have seen their jobs destroyed and their lives become
more insecure. They
have felt increasingly powerless against forces beyond
their control. If we
fail to learn from our mistakes, globalisation will
not only succeed in
promoting development but will continue to create
poverty and instability.
This will be a tragedy for all of us. Unemployment
could persist for years,
and government intervention would be required. The
free market ideology
should be replaced with analyses based on economic
science, with a more
balanced view of the role of government drawn from an
understanding of both
market and government failures.
These challenges are present at the surface structure
but what are the
remaining challenges, at the deeper structure? And
what new strategies and
policies should be formulated to effectively address
these challenges? A big
issue for actual history is who will be the
responsible for the failure of
the states? Who will be the guardian of the general
interest when the
private interest will go too far?  Who will be
accountable for the Human
rights violation when the states are force to give up
their sovereignty?
These are questions without a proper answer. This
thesis cannot provide an
answer; it can only invite you on further reflections
and research on this
field.
We can start by assuming that "as long as the
nation-state system continues
to dominate global interaction, the state will
continue to be the key
provider, or alternatively, the major abuser of human
rights towards its
citizens."  This paradigm seems to be out-dated
because at the deepest
structure, the biggest violators of human rights are
the Transnationals and
some International Intergovernmental organisations as
well.
Global Humane Governance is the magic word for the
management of the common
affaires of the World and European Union is the only
International actor
having the real material and spiritual potential to do
it, because UN doesn'
t have the material capabilities for it. (see annex
11) We are very
optimistic about the important role of Europe in world
politic as a soft
superpower able to balance to USA - hard superpower.

1.Perspectives on the challenges and opportunities of
the future EU

The hypothesis: for all the progress in the
construction of the new identity
of European Union, the European Civil Society
(resistance against the
coercive European Political Society) cannot accept
"the embedded neo-
liberalism" (the EU s actual hegemonic Project)
without finding real
solutions for so- called "social fracture" of
globalization and this
represents a big threat to the soft security model of
Europe. This research
is based on the neo- Gramscian integrative theoretical
perspective. The
question is : could Civil Society from CEEC, as social
power participate in
the potential anti- hegemonic Project of European
Civil Society  (in neo-
Gramscian terms), able to face the hegemonic project
of European Political
Society, "embedded neo- liberalism"?" After examining
CEECcase study the
answer is negative because this Civil Society is not
well organised, even it
is ripe to understand their social situation and the
possibilities to change
it in alliance with other transnational forces of
Social and Christian
Democracy from Europe.
