FERNANDES, José Pedro Teixeira. Federalism: is it the solution to the European Union crisis? A Portuguese view. Relações Internacionais [online]. 2018, n.esp2018, pp.59-75. ISSN 1645-9199. https://doi.org/10.23906/ri2018.sia05.
Federal aspirations have been subjacent to the integration of the European Communities/European Union since its inception. With the current crisis that started in 2007/2008, we have seen a new wave of ideas related with economic federalism. However, it is unclear what the concrete solution could be, particularly in terms of the division of competences and powers between the EU and the member states. The purpose of this paper is to identify and analyse the major proposals and/or federalist-oriented measures to resolve the Eurozone crisis. It is also an aim to assess the eventual design of a more economically integrated European Union, based on any form of economic federalism, and discuss its implications and risks for Portugal.
