For centuries, Europe has dominated the world, but after the catastrophes of the twentieth century, has had to adapt to it. The ambition of power, inscribed in its cultural roots, has not disappeared, but was transfigured into the money. The euro, in fact, with its budgetary rules laid down at Maastricht, was designed to ensure Europe a regular and infinite growth, in order to excel in the global competition. But the global economic crisis highlights the limits of this project, which is in danger of no longer being a success story but, on the contrary, a mortal danger.

Keywords: Collective will, hegemony, decentralisation, abstraction, appropriation, alienation.
