Summary
"The COVID-19 pandemic took the European Union on a rollercoaster ride. In the first months of 2020, the EU reassured itself into inaction: 'We are prepared'. It was taken by surprise when Italy capsized. The lack of solidarity between countries seemed to bring the union - once again - to its knees. After the eurocrisis, the migration crisis and Brexit, this could be one crisis too many. But the EU crawled its way back: during six difficult months, the European Union managed to reinvent itself. Europe Reinvented takes you on a journey through the key moments of the COVID-19 pandemic in the EU and through the maze of European institutions. It provides clear answers to questions like: Could the COVID-19 outbreak have been predicted? What tools does the EU have to handle an emergency? How should Europe position itself in a leaderless world? How will the EU get out of this massive economic crisis?"--Page 4 of cover
