Sažetak
EU is in the existential crisis. The question is why that is so and what are the facts which might help to resolve the problems that are part of the EU existential crisis. In the paper the economic position of the EU in globalized world is analyzed and used as the argument for a broader interest to support the future existence and success of the EU integration functioning. Theoretical explanations are introduced to support the notion of the needed further EU integration functioning. Use of the theory of economic integration and trade, leads analyze to the observations that are essential for the needed change and improvement of the solidarity and cooperation among the EU member states in the future.
States in the accession to the EU process or to be candidate stats are especially disturbed with the present status of the EU integration crisis functioning. Based on the selected theoretical explanations and selected statistics the paper shows that the candidate countries undoubtable have interest and need to continue their efforts to conclude successfully the EU accession process. Continuation of the accession efforts among the accessing countries might create an atmosphere of specific positive support to the EU states that are straggling for reforms and improvements in the functioning of their economic and general integration environment. The needed EU integration reforms will be further supported by the improved broad EU population’s understanding of the economic impacts that have been created through the so called economic globalization process in last few decades. Some arguments for improved EU population’s understanding of the EU advantages in the environment of the globalized markets are offered in the paper. The option of EU economic integration disruption, with creating small national markets that could be under the negative pressure from large global entities, is supposed to be nonacceptable.
