Jean Monnet Professor of European Union Law

Alberto Alemanno

For decades, Europe has depended on the US not only for its security, but also for much of its technological and financial infrastructure. As the transatlantic relationship continues to fracture, Europe faces a question much bigger than how to spend more on defence. Can it reduce its dependence on American technology, capital and financial infrastructure while building the industrial capacity to defend itself? And can it do so without sacrificing prosperity and the welfare state?
