Abstract(s)
The European project is marked by decades of achievements and successes, in a path that has seen advances and setbacks regarding the debate between institutional deepening and the enlargement of the EU
to new Member States. This is a debate that has been fueled by different political options and changes in the institutional framework of the European Union, namely at the level of «informal decision-making directories» that condition and write the history of the European project.
The path of success adopted by European leaders is undeniable, in a project started with 6 founding countries and which today brings together 27 Member States, with several countries following the path of accession. This path is fueled by the sharing of a common identity and the pursuit of improving living conditions, in a message that has been disseminated over decades and implemented by a spirit of solidarity between peoples.
