Encoded Weakening of the European Integration – The EU-specific Vectors of Disorientegration

Absztrakt

The paper attempts to contribute to the better understanding of how the centrifugal force towards  weakening European integration has developed by  identifying the EU-specific vectors of such gradient. We  argue that disorientegration is an echo effect of a complex  amalgam of mutually intertwined and interrelated mechanisms embedded secularly into our European integration process. The paper also addresses whether  secular stagnation adds to that centrifugal force. The paper finally outlines at least six potential principles of reversing  the European disorientegration by cultivating contingency governance.
