Daring to dream

Europe is no utopia but, using Britain as a bridge, it can share its global
vision with the US

Jeremy Rifkin
Wednesday September 1, 2004
The Guardian

In a deeply polarised America, where virtually every value has become fair game
for criticism, there is one that remains sacrosanct: the American dream - the
idea that anyone, regardless of the circumstances to which they're born, can
make of their lives as they choose, by dint of diligence, determination, and
hard work. The problem is that one-third of all Americans, according to a
recent national survey, no longer even believe in it. Some have lost faith
because they worked hard all their lives only to find hardship and despair.
Others question the very dream itself, arguing that its underlying tenets have
become less relevant in an increasingly interconnected and interdependent
world. For the first time, the American dream no longer serves as the rallying
point for everyone in America.
Meanwhile, a new European dream is beginning to capture the world's
imagination. That dream has now been codified in the form of a draft
constitution and Europeans are currently debating whether or not to ratify its
contents and accept its underlying values as the core of a new Europe.

Twenty-five nations, representing 455 million people, have joined together to
create a "United States" of Europe. Like the United States of America, this
vast political entity has its own empowering myth. Although still in its
adolescence, the European dream is the first transnational vision, one far
better suited to the next stage in the human journey. Europeans are beginning
to adopt a new global consciousness that extends beyond, and below, the borders
of their nation-states, deeply embedding them in an increasingly interconnected
world.

Americans are used to thinking of their country as the most successful on
earth. That's no longer the case: the EU has grown to become the third largest
governing institution in the world. Though its land mass is half the size of
the continental US, its $10.5 trillion GDP now eclipses the US GDP, making it
the world's largest economy. The EU is already the world's leading exporter and
largest internal trading market. The comparisons are even more revealing when
it comes to the quality of life. For example, in the EU, there are
approximately 322 physicians per 100,000 people; in the US there are only 279
physicians per 100,000 people. The US ranks 26th among the industrial nations
in infant mortality, well below the EU average. The average life-span in the 15
most developed EU countries is now 78.2 years compared to 76.9 years in the US.
When it comes to wealth distribution - a crucial measure of a country's ability
to deliver on the promise of prosperity - the US ranks 24th among the
industrial nations. All 18 of the most developed European countries have less
income inequality between rich and poor.

Europeans often remark that Americans "live to work", while they "work to
live". The average paid vacation time in Europe is now six weeks a year. By
contrast, Americans, on average, receive only two weeks. When one considers
what makes a people great and what constitutes a better way of life, Europe is
beginning to surpass America.

Nowhere is the contrast between the European dream and the American dream
sharper than when it comes to the definition of personal freedom. For
Americans, freedom has long been associated with autonomy; the more wealth one
amasses, the more independent one is in the world. One is free by becoming self-
reliant and an island unto oneself. With wealth comes exclusivity and with
exclusivity comes security. For Europeans, freedom is not found in autonomy but
in community. It's about belonging, not belongings.

Americans are more willing to employ military force to protect perceived vital
self-interests. Europeans favour diplomacy, economic aid and peacekeeping
operations to maintain order. The American dream is deeply personal and little
concerned with the rest of humanity. The European dream is more systemic, bound
to the welfare of the planet.

That isn't to say that Europe is a utopia. Europeans have become increasingly
hostile towards asylum seekers. Anti-semitism is on the rise, as is
discrimination against Muslims and other religious minorities. While Europeans
berate America for having a trigger-happy foreign policy, they are willing, on
occasion, to let the US armed forces safeguard European security interests. And
even its supporters say that the EU's governing machinery, based in Brussels,
is aloof from the citizens it supposedly serves.

The point, however, is not whether the Europeans are living up to their dream.
We Americans have never fully lived up to our own dream. What's important is
that a new generation of Europeans is creating a radical new vision for the
future.

The UK is uniquely positioned to play a bridge role between the older American
dream and the newly emerging European dream. Were it to cast its fate with the
EU, while maintaining its special relationship with America, the UK could help
create an ideological synergy between the two great superpowers of the 21st
century. The UK could champion the entrepreneurial sensibilities and sense of
individualism that is so characteristic of the US way of life, within the
corridors of Europe. At the same time, the UK could help Americans better
understand the need to expand their dream beyond individual self-interests to
include the general welfare of the larger community and a global consciousness
more befitting a globalising world.

But the UK will never fully enjoy the advantages that come with being part of a
shared political space if it continues to straddle the fence. The US and the EU
are going to increasingly realise that their own prosperity and security
depends on their cooperation, if for no other reason than the fact that they
each represent the two largest markets in the world. What can the UK offer
either of these megapowers that they can't better secure by dealing directly
with each other?

Instead of seeing full membership in the European Union in purely negative
terms, as something being forced on them by the flow of global events, the UK
ought to consider Europeanisation as a historic opportunity, with vast
potential benefits for the British people. By being a critical part of a larger
European agenda, the UK can play a leadership role in helping shape the
European dream and laying the groundwork for a truly global consciousness in
the coming century. Equally importantly, the UK's ability to draw America and
Europe closer together depends on it being squarely in the EU fold.

The human race is becoming connected. Nation-state boundaries, once a source of
security in an unpredictable world, are increasingly seen as too restrictive to
accommodate the many new identities, affiliations and loyalties that make up a
network way of life. The question for the British people, and peoples
everywhere, is whether to be constrained inside old political containers, or to
reach out and establish new political arrangements more suitable to an era of
ever greater interdependence.

Bushowi, ze nie mozna wygrac wojny z terroryzmem, powinien przejsc na Islam,

Ameryka to 300 milionow ludzi z najpotezniejsza armia w swiecie. Politykow tu

  ...że jak pisze Amerykanin "Ameryka to 300 milionow ludzi", a nie idiota (lub
  oszust) Bush. To prawda, ze USA maja najpotężniejsza armię na świecie. Ale
  najpotężniejsza to nie znaczy WSZECHMOCNA. Na myleniu tych pojęć "przewiózł"
  się już niejeden polityk.
  90 lat temu najpotężniejszą armię na świecie miały cesarskie Niemcy. Zaczęły
  wojnę, z wiadomym skutkiem.
  Podobnie tragiczne konsekwencje dla Ameryki i świata moloby mieć mylenie
  pojęć "pierwszeństwo w świecie" i WŁADZA nad światem. To pierwsze Ameryka już
  ma. Tej drugiej nie będzie mieć nigdy.
  Mam nadzieję, że większość z 300 milionów Amerykanów to rozumie lub zrozumie.
  To właśnie jeden z największych Amerykanów, Lincoln, powiedział, że można
  oszukać jednego na długo, wielu na krótko, ale nie można oszukać wielu na
  długo. W irackiej awanturze Amerykanie dali sie oszukać Bushowi, jak 65 lat
  temu Niemcy Hitlerowi. Ale jak mówił Lincoln...
