European integration theory was dominated by neo-fiinctionalism in the 1960s and by realism in the 1970s and early 1980s. In the late 1980s these two paradigms were finally confronted. As a result of this confrontation, there seems to be an emergence of a new approach based on the idea that neither neo-functionalism nor realism alone can explain European integration but that each perspective provides fundamental insights. Multi-level governance models and even state-centred models tend to recognise that both theoretical frameworks have something to offer.

  • Le Luxembourg Face Aux Traités De Rome
    Gilbert TRAUSCH Le Luxembourg face aux traités de Rome. La stratégie d'un petit pays publié IN: Centre d'études et de recherches européennes Robert Schuman (Collectif), Le Luxembourg face à la construction européenne – Luxemburg und die europäische Einigung, Luxembourg, 1996, pp.119-146 Il nous paraît utile de commencer par deux citations de Joseph Bech, l'inamovible Ministre luxembourgeois des Affaires étrangères – il était en poste de 1926 à 1959 sans interruption.1 Elles illustrent l'intérêt exceptionnel qu'une union européenne présente pour le Luxembourg et les graves risques que celle-ci comporte pour un pays aussi petit. Dès 1942, parti en exil avec le gouvernement luxembourgeois, J. Bech exprime devant la Commission des Affaires étrangères de la Chambre des Représentants à Washington sa vision de l'Europe d'après-guerre. Déjà il a bien compris les deux nécessités essentielles de la nouvelle Europe: commencer l'œuvre d'unification par le terrain le plus facile en créant un marché économique européen mais prendre bien soin d'y inclure l'Allemagne, si possible une Allemagne ramenée à des proportions plus acceptables: «In my view Europe is ready to unite - at least economically […]. But there is another fact which cannot but have an influence on the co-operation of the European nations. There is Germany and Germany cannot be excluded from the European Community. Even disarmed, and if possible spilt up …».2 Bech aime citer un proverbe français pour attirer l'attention sur les problèmes que l'unification européenne pose aux petits pays: «Tandis qu'un gros devient maigre, un maigre passe de vie à trépas».

Travaux d'extension du CERE La rénovation de l'ancien presbytère de Clausen va bon train. Les travaux de gros-œuvres ont commencé après le congé collectif en septembre. Ils sont actuellement achevés. Entre-temps aussi les anciennes fenêtres ont été arrachées et remplacées et la toiture a été refaite, de sorte que les électriciens, les monteurs du chauffage et les installateurs du sanitaire pourront démarrer leurs travaux en janvier 2013, comme prévu par le calendrier de l'architecte. Sauf imprévu, la rénovation sera donc achevée dans le courant de la seconde moitié de 2013. Colloques, conférences, rencontres et séances d'information Les collaborateurs du CERE ont organisé/participé/assisté à de nombreux colloques scientifiques, conférences, rencontres internationales, dont nous n'aimerions citer que quelques exemples: - série de conférences organisées au Portugal par S.Exc.
