He dissects the political and cultural challenges facing the continent, offering insights into how these issues are reshaping the European identity. Krastev examines the tensions between national interests and collective European values, highlighting the complexities of unity in a diversifying landscape.
Through his analysis, he engages with critical questions about democracy, migration, and the rising populism that has recently captivated many nations.
