Why 2033

A decade o political clarification

Shared diagnosis

  • Responsibilities blurred an a deficit o political decision
  • Technocracy athoot eneuch civic ownership

Guidin principles

Veesion 2033 in sax requirements

These principles guide the haill roadmap. They jyne pluralism, protection, an democratic responsibility for a Europe that lasts.

01
Identity

European pluralism we staund by

Europe isnae uniformity but an organisit plurality. Political unity juist maitters if it protects the cultures, leids, an territories that shape collective life.

02
Subsidiarity

Lived subsidiarity

Everyday life should be decidit as close as possible. Political responsibility is clear whan citizens ken fine wha acts an at whit level.

03
Protection

Protective federalism

The federal Europe disnae replace identities; it protects them. It gaithers the competences that local levels cannae tak on their lane.

04
Economy

Orderit economy

The European economic order maun be stable, clear, an impartial. Competition is an instrument o freedom, no an ideology.

05
Democracy

Territorial an participatory democracy

A democratic Europe maun jyne up citizen participation, cultural pluralism, an territorial legitimacy.

06
Duration

Europe able tae last

Political durability needs citizens tae tak ownership an institutions able tae protect the freedoms they organise.
