On the End of History and Europe.

[Full episode for subscribers only]LSE professor Mike Wilkinson talks to Phil and Alex about how the history of European integration fits with constitutional theories and ideas of sovereignty. We discuss: 

In what way are the conspiracy theories about the EU true?

What are the origins of European integration in the inter-war crisis?

How did European integration tie into the history of ideas and development of 20th century legal history?

How far does European integration overlap with counter-revolutionary theories and ideas?

And who is the Last European?

Excellent- one of the most interesting episodes of the last few months

Fantastic episode! I am not entirely sure if I would subscribe to the argument that reforming the EU is less realistic than leaving it. Both seem to be daunting tasks, especially when you consider that the EU will try to take revenge on any country that dares to leave. The most plausible scenario would be leaving by attaching yourself to a foreign imperial power, like China for instance.
