In March 2010 the European Commission launched its Europe 2020 Strategy to prepare the EU economy for the next decade. This Commentary by Fabian Zuleeg assesses the Strategy’s strengths and weaknesses. On the positive side it makes concrete proposals, gives seven flagship initiatives and includes education within its scope. On the negative side its rational for the targets set is unclear, it is too dependent on Member State political will, does not integrate public finance and reform and has weak delivery mechanisms. The final assessment? The Strategy needs to be more ambitious if it is to deliver future sustainable growth. |
