Thank you for inviting me to speak here today at Hanover College. I will be looking at one of the pro�found problems besetting Europe: the lack of eco�nomic liberalization among some of the European Union’s biggest countries. Whether the EU has grand ambitions to become a superpower or not, whether it sees itself creating a new international order or wants to enlarge into Asia and North Africa, I think that without the willingness to tackle rigidity and stagna�tion in the major EU economies, the project will not have much of a chance."
