Seven years on, they are again causing alarm. To judge from the presidential race in France and the fall of the Dutch government this week, many are kicking against austerity. And a growing number support extremist parties of the left and right that reject the decades-old European project altogether. Tempting as it is to conflate worries about France and the Netherlands, much separates them. Yet in some ways it is precisely these contrasts that are most worrying. If the flighty French and the dour Dutch are both disenchanted with the EU, the malaise is profound indeed. The euro zone's debt crisis is polarizing the politics of austerity and economic pain. The sense of resentment has been building for years: the no votes in 2005 were not a passing aberration. In both countries it is the low-skilled and poorly educated--the supposed losers from globalization--who are most openly in revolt. All this raises the question of whether Germany and the EU can hold the line on budget discipline. Opini Anda Klik untuk menuliskan opini Anda tentang koleksi ini! Kembali
