And like "Rome", the EU too is not built in only one day, or in one step.&nbsp;</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; After preparatory work for decades, the EU has been built in two steps since its dynamic new start during the mid 80-s, and the long-range, very conscious work by Mr Jacques Delors and others.</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; During the first phase; from 1986 to 1992, the "Single Market" was built, by first transforming the "European Economical Communities" to the "European Communities" and finally to "The European Community". Thereby, what later - with the TEU - explicitly came to be called the "first pillar", was brought to a preliminary end.&nbsp;</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Facing the second 6-year-phase, that took its start in 1992, the ground was laid also for that which normally constitutes the "state functions" as such of normal states, with the efforts - formulated with TEU in Maastricht - to realize a "Common Foreign and Security Policy" and a cooperation in the fields of justice and home affairs, termed the "second" and the "third pillar" of the "European house" .&nbsp;</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; This second phase is meant to come to an end in 1998, with the completion of the "first pillar" in the form of an Economical and Monetary Union (EMU), a single currency and a completely autonomous European Central Bank (ECB), with the minimal inflation and the stable currency as the central goals.&nbsp;</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; This intensification of the work to develop the cooperation in Europe has evoked enthusiasm in a number of people, while it has evoked apprehension in other people, who feel ever more pressed and awkward in the face of the dreams of Europe as a "Great Power" they feel thereby come to expression.&nbsp;</font> </p><p><b><font color="#800040">THE GENERAL "HOUSE BUILDING PROCESS"</font></b> <br><font color="#800040">Is it possible to understand what this process is the expression of, from an anthroposophical perspective?&nbsp;</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Yes. With the realization of the basis for the "first pillar" - the "Single Market" during the first 6-year period after 1986, and the effort to realize the "second" and the "third pillar" in their present form as expressions for the "state functions" as such during the second 6-year period after 1986 with EU - a process has been started, that implicates five more phases, not yet described, but implicit in the "building-process".</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; These stages it is possible to describe, as the seven stages constitute the classical stages of the basic building of "houses" into living, functioning "bodies", filled with life, soul and spirit.&nbsp;</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; During the <b>first</b> stage of the "EU-process" a legal "<i>body</i>" has been built <i>for "economical life</i>" in all its aspects proper of the social organism in the form of the Single market.</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; During the <b>second</b> stage of EU, <i>a "body</i>" has now also been built for the social and legal life between humans as<i> a basic legal order,</i> in the form of the European Union.</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; During the <b>third</b> stage in the building of social "houses" <i>a "body" is built for the soul, for cultural life</i> for the future of the house, of the organism.&nbsp;</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; And during the <b>fourth</b> stage in the building of social "houses", <i>a "body" </i>is built in some form <i>for the "spirit" - for the "I" - </i>of the house, of the organism.&nbsp;</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; This "I" that lives in this "egobody" of the organism then penetrates and transforms that which has been built during the first three stages.&nbsp;</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; During the <b>fifth</b> stage, this "I" penetrates and transforms that which has been built during the third stage as a "body" for the soul, and tries to develop it into something new as a <i>free cultural life for the future</i>.&nbsp;</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; During the <b>sixth</b> stage, this "I" penetrates the social order that has been built as a "body" for the social and legal life during the second stage as the "Old Law " and tries to <i>democratize and christianize it into something new for the future as the "New Law"</i>.</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; And during the <b>seventh</b> stage finally, this "I" penetrates what has been built as a "body" for economy during the first stage and tries to transform it into something new for the future as an ever more<i> "brotherly", altruistic economical life</i>.&nbsp;</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; This is the general pattern of the building process for social houses, social organisms - described in very short and principal terms.&nbsp;</font> <br><a href="sochouse.jpg"><img src="sochoust.jpg" align="texttop" height="299" hspace="6" vspace="2" width="550"></a> <br><font color="#800040">(click on the picture to get a bigger one)</font> </p><p><b><font color="#800040">The Ur-drama of the first seven mythical Roman Kings</font></b> <br><font color="#800040">You find it described already by Livy in his picture of the first seven mythical Roman Kings, as the founders of the Roman Empire.&nbsp;</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The first was <i>Romulus</i>, who was raised to heaven as the god "Quirinius" (not completely unlike Jacques Delors).&nbsp;</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The second king; <i>Numa Pompilius</i> embodied social order, he brought laws for ordinary living.&nbsp;</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The third king, <i>Tullus Hostilius</i>, represented the passions.

He describes them as <b>"Chronos" </b>- as an expression of <i>"moral strength" </i>to do the good, <b>"Zeus" </b>- as an expression of <i>"inner beauty"</i>, and <b>"Chton" </b>- as an expression of <i>"wisdom"</i>.&nbsp;</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; In the human being, these qualities are connected with the possible goals for her will, her life of feelings and her thinking.</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; In society, they are connected with and an expression of the possible future goals for <i>the economical life</i>, the <i>legal and social life</i> and for <i>cultural life.</i></font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; One later finds them described again by Plato, but now in a reduced form, in his picture of the groups of the ideal society as he sees it and describes it in his work "The Republic". He there describes how these groups are - not three but - two main groups; <i>"craftsmen" </i>and "the guardians" - those who take care of the state functions proper.&nbsp;</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; This second main group; the "guardians", however - according to Plato - consists of two subgroups; <i>"the warriors"</i>, who protect the state against hostile powers and <i>"the philosophers"</i>, who are the real rulers in his ideal "state". These "philosophers" constitute the elite in his ideal state, and to the questions that Plato treats in "The Republic" belong how this elite is to be educated to fill its functions to rule society "in the best way" out of their insights.&nbsp;</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Another starting point is the actual separation of the work of EU between the so far allembracing Commission in Brussels, and the work of a Parliament that has so far been reduced to a an instancy of remitment, in another city; Strasbourg; two organs in a clear imbalance with one another in a way that has euphemistically been termed the "democratic deficit" .&nbsp;</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; A third starting point is the so far "wandering cultural city of Europe" - the election by the Commission of a city in Europe to be "The cultural capital of Europe" for one year.</font> </p><p><b><font color="#800040">THE "FIRST PILLAR" AND THE EU-COMMISSION</font></b> <br><font color="#800040">With these starting points, one sees that one of the problems with the EU, <b>the first and central, basic task</b>, is to transform the Commission to what it is in its essence and bears in itself as a seed to become; an actual, factual organ of cooperation on a European level for the main parties of economy on an equal basis, concentrated on and limiting its work to the initiation and implementation of legislation in the field of economy.</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; At present, the Commission, with its construction and direction, its 24 General Directorats (26 as DG I is divided into I A, I B and I C) and its monopoly in initiating and implementing legistlation for the first pillar of EC/EU, is almost completely characterised by the perspectives and interests that flow from the leaders of the great industries and capital interests through ERT; "European Round Table of industrialists" and CEPS; "the Centre for European Policy Studies" .&nbsp;</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; ERT consists of 45 leaders for European industries with totally three million employees and a turnover of about 500 billion "Euros" per year. It constitutes one of the most influential lobby groups of the EU.&nbsp;</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; CEPS was founded in 1993 by about 40 transnational companies and banks in Western Europe in cooperation with different foundations. Later, American and Japanese interests have also joined CEPS. CEPS is a part of the political establishment of Europe through its history, through being economically independent and through having strong personal bonds with the top level of the Commission, of NATO and of WEU.&nbsp;</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; If one looks at the Commission, it is clear that it contains many wefts of a "Round Table" -character and dialogues with representatives of many more or less transnational groups in Europe, before different propositions for legistlation are put forth in different areas.&nbsp;</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; But its work is also based on <b>"the four freedoms" for a producer-oriented economy.</b> These are what the builders of EU - from their perspective - view as the proper expression for the "tools" , with which one in the classical house-building tradition builds the "first pillar" of "houses" .&nbsp;</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; This "Mars"-character of the economy still corresponds to and is an expression of the development of the human being up to the present time.&nbsp;</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; But if you look forward, you also see that this one-sided and strong orientation towards the interests of the producers and bankers belongs to the past. In the future we have to develop much more of the "Mercurial" cooperation in the field of economy, "brotherly" directed as much, if not more towards the interests and needs of not ourself, but of all our fellows.&nbsp;</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; For this the EU stands before the long term task to step by step deconstruct the remaining "hierarchical" character of the Commission, still dominated by the interests of banking, industry and business through ERT, CEPS and other well financed and powerful lobby groups, and develop it in its essence into an ever more "brotherly" "Round table"-organisation that in an institutionalised way and on an equal, "brotherly" basis comprises all parties that in different ways take part in the production and circulation of goods.&nbsp;</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Is this possible?&nbsp;</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Yes, if you take your start in an understanding of the essence of all "economy"; the circulation of goods. If you look at it, you see that the circulation of goods in human society comprises four stages.&nbsp;</font> </p><p><b><font color="#800040">THE FOUR MAIN STAGES OF THE CIRCULATION OF GOODS&nbsp;</font></b> <br><font color="#800040">The first stage is the "production" of goods out of matter taken from the earth. The counterpole to this production of goods is the "consumption" of them. To the consumer some of the main interests are the quality, the availability and the price of the goods.&nbsp;</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Between these two interests the different "business"-actors mediate, from the wholesale dealers to the shop at the corner, who transport the goods from producers to consumers, helping the producers to find markets and the consumers to find the right goods and getting them at a reasonable, fair price.&nbsp;</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; But there is also a fourth stage of the circulation. It consists of the way of the used rests of the goods, the residues, back to and through a new stage of "nature". The feeling of the responsibility for not taking out more from the Earth than it can give and not to poison it in such a way that it will die "before its time has come" also has its main representatives who can be found in the enviromental movements and the green parties around the world.&nbsp;</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Together, <i>the producers, the traders, the consumers</i> and <i>the green movements and parties</i> represent <b>the responsibilities for the four basic stages of the process of circulation of goods;</b></font> </p><ol> <li> <font color="#800040">to make things out of nature that we need to build our lives on Earth,&nbsp;</font></li> <li> <font color="#800040">to distribute them,&nbsp;</font></li> <li> <font color="#800040">to build our culture through and by using and and consuming goods, and&nbsp;</font></li> <li> <font color="#800040">not to take out too much of the Earth or poison it with the left-overs of our culture.&nbsp;</font></li> </ol> <a href="transfor.jpg"><img src="transfot.jpg" alt="The necessary metamorphosis of the &iuml;four tools&iuml;" align="texttop" height="258" width="550"></a> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Different representatives for groups representing all these parties, that are responsible for different parts of the circulation of goods, can be found in the work of the Commission, but some mainly in a subordinated role.&nbsp;</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Here one finds among other ETUC; the European Trade Union Confederation, an association of the 50 greatest main labor unions within EU, except for the French CGT, and representing 47 million members. ETUC is consulted when the Commission formulates its suggestions for legislation.&nbsp;</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Another organ is BEUC; European Bureau of Consumer&acute;s Unions, an umbrella-association for 23 national European consumer organisations that represent the consumer interests in some 20 committees participating in the legislative process of EU and in the Committee of Consumers of the EU-Commission; CCC.&nbsp;</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; According to a decision in the Council of Ministers in 1990, a European Enviromental Agency was to be erected with its seat in Copenhagen and the task of making studies and summarizing information that can constitute the basis for decisions in the environmental field. This has also been done.&nbsp;</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; It was however not meant to get and also has not - as little as the European Environmental Bureau in Brussels, behind which stands non-governmental environmental organisations - got any controlling authority, which the EU-Parliament demanded.&nbsp;</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Of the 24 General Directorats only one (DG V) is directly dealing with questions of employment (and unemployment), one with consumer questions (DG XXIV) and one directly with "Environment, Nuclear Safety and Civil Protection" (DG XI) (two other Directorats however also support it in questions of research on enviromental technique and energy; DG XII and XVII).&nbsp;</font> <p><b><font color="#800040">TRANSFORM AND DEVELOP THE COMMISSION!&nbsp;</font></b> <br><font color="#800040">To the most important questions and tasks in the work to reform the EU in a longer perspective belongs the task to rebalance the work of the Commission.&nbsp;</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; If the EU shall be able to develop in a proper, timely, human, socially and ecologically responsible way, the EU faces as the main, central task to decide on an enlargment of the Commission, in pace with the East- and South-enlargement of EU.&nbsp;</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; To meet the needs of the near future, the Commission will have to institutionalise new General Directorats, except for those that exist for questions of economy, production, transport and trade, for also workers, consumers and "environmental interests" on an equal, brotherly level with the economy-production and transport-trade parties.</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The 10-15 new necessary General Directorats that should in time be instituted to deal more actively with the problems of unemployment, for small scale business on a cooperative basis, for consumer-, and not least the many important environmental problems, correspond well to the number of expected new member-countries of Eastern and Southern Europe, and could also be institutionalised in a natural way one at a time with a new Commissioner from every new country that becomes a member.&nbsp;</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; At present, the "Commission" is slowly, but steadily developing into ever more of an also formal "Government" for the whole of the EU.</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; This development is understandable and has deep roots, but is - today - completely wrong and untimely. It would be totally wrong finally to institutionalise the Commission as a sort of also formal government for the whole of EU, with the Council of Ministers as a sort of "senate" and "first chamber", superior to the the EU-Parliament as a sort of "second chamber" for the populase.</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <b><i><font size="+1">The Commission should be rebalanced to include General Directorats for all the four stages of the circulation of goods on an equal and brotherly basis in its structure - including coworkers, consumers and environmental interests - and thereafter stick to and cultivate its task as a legislating-initiating and -implementing organ in the field of the the "first pillar"; the economy. Doing such an objective thing would make it into something really good in the face of the future development of Europe and a source of inspiration for also other parts of the world.&nbsp;</font></i></b></font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; To the tasks for the Commission also belongs the further development of the "brotherly" relation to Eastern Europe, that strong forces are already trying to realize. An important measure in this direction would also be to fuse DG IV ("Competition") with the mixed DG XXIII to a new Directorate dealing as much with questions of cooperation and of Cooperatives as with competition into the near future in the field of economy.&nbsp;</font> </p><p><b><font color="#800040">"1998", EMU AND A "EUROPEAN CENTRAL BANK"&nbsp;</font></b> <br><font color="#800040">In this context, the forced work to establish a single currency for the whole of Europe in 1998 and the establishment of a European Central Bank as an independant instrument for the steering of the economy of all of Europe feels <i>very</i> troubling.&nbsp;</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; In its present planned form the bank is meant to be essentially totally separated from, independant of and retracted from all and every external influence and regulation from organs like the EU-Commission, the EU-Parliament and the Council of Ministers, even though its in the beginning of May 1998 appointed Dutch chief Wim Duisenberg has promised to keep up a regular dialogue with the European Parliament. It is also meant to have as its primal goal the minimal inflation and the stable currency, a goal to be put before <i>every</i> other consideration and problem, like the enviromental, human or social concerns, or the comprehensive unemployment.&nbsp;</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Developed in <i>this</i> way, the economical life will not only get a to a certain extent necessary independence, but will also finally be given the <i>absolute</i> superiority over every other social process in a potentially disastrous way in the face of the further development of Europe.&nbsp;</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; How important different quarters consider this central steering organ to be for the total further development of Europe, is shown by the fact that it, facing its third and last "fixation stage" - like the "Federal Reserve Act" when it was taken by only three senators on the Christmas Eve in 1913 and signed by President Wilson the same night, and like the TEU when it was formed in 1991 - was "protected" from the "danger" of having to be discussed during the IGC 96 and thereby included and subordinated under a somewhat more democratically steered part of the EU.&nbsp;</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The pushing through of the third stage of the EMU before the "Sacred" date of "the 1st of January 1999", that is "1998", is the last "necessary" to necessitate the transformation of The Commission into an also formal, but improper "Government" over all of EU. As such, it is the "eye of the needle" for the possibility to either steer the development <i>towards</i> the by some wished for, powerful "(American-)European Empire", or <i>away from</i> this Dinosauric/Tyrannosauric dream, towards the necessary differentiation that the "pillar system" has laid the foundation for.&nbsp;</font> </p><p><b><font color="#800040">THE ROLE OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND THE TWO SIDES PROPER OF THE "SECOND PILLAR"&nbsp;</font></b> <br><b><font color="#800040">- "FOREIGN POLICY" AND "HOME POLICY"&nbsp;</font></b> <br><font color="#800040">To <b>the second main task in the reformation of EU</b> belongs the decision to strongly limit the tasks for the Directorat on "External Political Relations" (DG IA).&nbsp;</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The work under the present "second pillar" for questions of Foreign and Security policy should be strictly limited to the "Petersberg tasks" and completely transferred to a very much strengtened and developed OSCE; the Organisation for Security and Cooperation in Europe, as its proper forum.

Here the parliamentarian democracy still stands out as a model for the work.</font></i></b></font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The present system of jurisdiction, with the forms of decision reduced to the planned three for legistlation under the "first pillar" of EU also stands out as something good for the time being.&nbsp;</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; With time, the Commission and the EU-Parliament/Council of Ministers could also be more clearly separated from one another, by moving the EU-Parliament clearly more into Central Europe.&nbsp;</font> </p><p><b><font color="#800040">THE BUILDING OF THE "THIRD PILLAR" PROPER FROM 1998; THE "CULTURAL PILLAR"&nbsp;</font></b> <br><font color="#800040">At present, the picture of the three pillars of the European house depicts the "third pillar" as the pillar for questions of Home Policy.</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; This picture corresponds to the "reduced" and "ruler-oriented" picture of society described by Plato in his "Republic". But it also depicts the reduced picture of man that was "decided" to be the "proper" one at the Ecumenical Council of Constantinopel in 869.</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Before this meeting, in Christianity one had viewed man as composed of "body", "soul" and "spirit". At this church meeting it was however decided to view the spiritual in man, not as something independent and existing in itself, but only as a quality of the soul. Thereby, man was reduced to a "body", and a "soul" even if with some spiritual qualities.</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; This reduced picture of man reflects Plato&acute;s reduced picture of the "ideal state" and today appears again in the present picture of the "three pillars of EU".</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The "Ur-picture" for all good building work of the Temple tradition is the building of the Temple of Solomon, according to the legend built as a three part drama between Hiram, Solomon and Balkis, the queen of Sheeba. Viewed as a "social house construction" in this perspective, the EEA-phase between 1986 and 1992 stands out as the phase of Hiram, the Master of the Craft. The second; EU-phase between 1992 and 1998 stands out as the phase of Solomon, the Architect.&nbsp;</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Against this background, the third phase in the building proper of Europe as a "house" between 1998 and 2005 stands out as the phase of Balkis proper, "the woman of star wisdom".</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; A mirror of this picture can also be found in the symbol of EU with its 12 stars, with its roots in the picture of the "heavenly woman", dressed in the sun, with the moon under her feet and her head surrounded by twelve star, ready to bear her child, mediated by the Apocalypse (12:1-3). This will undoubtedly constitute the basis for some drama around the turn of the Millennium.&nbsp;</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; As a counterweight to these dramas and <b>the third main task for the EU</b> - and in the longer perspective - one can see <b><i><font size="+1">the choice and institutionalisation of a more permanent European cultural Capital in the Western Slavic area - Prague is a very good one - except the wandering and free one, as a seed and forum for the development of a free, spiritualised European cultural life for the future and as an important bridge to Russia and the Eastern Slavic area.&nbsp;</font></i></b></font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Here belongs also the transfer of all questions concerning the multicultural life of Europe out of the EU and over to a from EU totally independent, European cultural organ, with its centre in Prague (like the present DG X for "Information, Communication, Culture and Audiovisual" and DG XXII for "Education, Training and Youth" ).&nbsp;</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; This has been meant only as some short indications. But they stand out as some of the things that have to take place and will take place sooner or later, and <i>our only possibility to do them peacefully</i> is to do them consciously now, if they shall not in 15-20 years begin forcing their way by more uncontrolled, violent means, as the disastrous 100 years war between England and France of the 14th century, the long and many European wars of the 17th century and the two World wars during this 20th century, resulting from immature - if understandable - ways of handling other, related problems.&nbsp;</font> </p><p><b><font color="#800040">A "counter-threefoldment"&nbsp;</font></b> <br><font color="#800040">One counter form to this necessary differentiation of Europe is however also already developing (Brzezinski, Int Herald Tribune 2.5.94, Kolankiewicz, Int Affairs 3.7.94). It consists in the formation of an axis, comprised of the three states of France, Germany and Poland, with France and Poland as wings holding a strong and central Germany in place and fixed in the function as the economic "motor" of the development of Europe into the future, as a "mechanical heart", instead of as part of the "spiritual heart" of Europe that it bears as a task to be.</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; This development in every way misses the central points in the task of Central Europe, but will undoubtedly be more or less carried through.</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; With the Single European Act, the Maastricht Treaty and the Amsterdam Treaty, a constitution for EU is now developing, that will put its mark on the whole future of the present "European/West-European" cultural epoch, starting with the Renaissance, in its development of a free, spiritualised cultural life as an expression of the conscious and responsible human being, and for which the central European idealistic tradition and the cultural impulses and life of Eastern Europe are crucial and absolutely necessary.</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; We are now heading for the next crucial act/treaty of the EC/EU-process around 2004/5, concerned with the questions of the fourth phase of the process, its turning point.</font> </p><p><b><font color="#800040">TURNING POINT ...&nbsp;</font></b> <br><font color="#800040">The time between about 2005 and 2011 during the EU-process that is being developed between 1986 and 2030, will probably display the culmination of the forces and strivings that want to make Europe into a federation, with the strife to finally institutionalise the "Presidency" of the Union on top of the pyramid.&nbsp;</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; This "Precidency" will then constitute a form of "Ego-organisation" for Europe. For what "I" for Europe do those, that are now developing it in stages, build it as a "body" to incarnate in?&nbsp;</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <b><i><font size="+1">The "I" of Europe can not be materialised as authority for power for a "president" in one human being. It lives and weaves in the social life between the peoples of Europe, in the conscious warm interest we show our fellow humans, independently of who they are and where they come from.&nbsp;</font></i></b></font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The attempt to build an external symbol as a social and legal "body" in the form of the "Presidency" for EU is a potentially bad omen, if it is not being handled in the proper way.&nbsp;</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <b>The forth basic problem of the EU-process</b> consists in handling this problem, having to do with the <i>relation</i> between the "economic" life of Europe and its organ (the Ecosoc, the Commission and <i>its</i> "President" ), the common "legal" life of the countries of Europe and its organs (the national parliaments, EU-Parliament and the Council of Ministers and the corresponding organs of the Council of Europe) and the "cultural" life of Europe and its organs (with their center in the future European cultural capital of Prague).&nbsp;</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The problem is dealt with among other already in the story by Goethe of "The green snake and the lily". An elementary model for the solution of this problem will possibly be the presidency of Bosnia, with three "presidents", the President of the Commission, the President of the Parliament and the President of the Council of Europe working together as a council.</font> </p><p><b><font color="#800040">... AND TRANSFORMATION&nbsp;</font></b> <br><font color="#800040">Between about 2011 and 2030 we will then - viewed from the "mechanical" historical perspective of the leading Western groups described in the beginning - be facing three difficult tasks, as a possibility, "fighting" against or supported by the new constitution for EU.&nbsp;</font> <br><a href="euhouse.jpg"><img src="euhouset.jpg" alt="The mechanical hidden agenda for EU-process as a temple process" border="3" height="388" hspace="4" vspace="4" width="520"></a> <br><font color="#800040">(click on the picture to get a bigger one)</font> </p><p><b><font color="#800040">The first of these tasks; the cultural task</font></b> <br><b><font color="#800040">"2011 - 2018"&nbsp;</font></b> <br><font color="#800040">will be to transform the not yet visible "humanistic power impulse" for Europe - in the spirit of Lyndon LaRouche, and Sorat, the second monster of the Apocalypse as one inspirational and challenging quality also behind the EMU - as well as the "spiritual power impulse" for Europe - in the spirit of the "Catholic Church" - that one can intuit will come to expression during the coming years, into further possibilites for a free, timely cultural life, that trancends both that which is "technically necessary" as well as that which is "spiritually necessary" into that which is truly humanly freedom creating.&nbsp;</font> </p><p><b><font color="#800040">The second task; the democratic task</font></b> <br><b><font color="#800040">"2018 - 2024"&nbsp;</font></b> <br><font color="#800040">to transform the external "Presidency" of EU, "lift out" the remains of "governmental power" in other fields than economy from the Commission, and transform the "European State" that has been impulsated as a "Union" into a true, democratic, equal legal life, built on social justice and human compassion.</font> </p><p><font color="#800040">And <b>the third task, the economic task</b></font> <br><b><font color="#800040">"2024 - 2030"&nbsp;</font></b> <br><font color="#800040">the most difficult one; will be to transform that which has been impulsated as a "Single market", built on competition between strong producers, into an ever more altruistic economy, built on brotherhood, in all our common responsibility for the future of the Earth.&nbsp;</font> </p><p><b><font color="#800040">THE LONG TERM TASK FOR EUROPE&nbsp;</font></b> <br><font color="#800040">The different "Architects" and constructors of EU are now building a "legal body" as a "house" for the future Europe out of the perspective of economy, in a way that they think is right.</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Above, I have tried to show how this process looks in a somewhat wider perspective.&nbsp;</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The house is very consciously built. But it must not remain the tool for power of the benevolent elite, that it has very much been, even if understandable, so far.&nbsp;</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; It must be transformed out of that element which is good in it, so that it becomes a house for <i>all</i> the peoples of Europe, also those that today, mostly in Eastern Europe and Russia, have been put on the street as a result of "economical necessities" .&nbsp;</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The role of Europe in world history has been central since the Renaissance - for better and worse - and it will surely continue to be important far into the future. But it must into this future consist in dissolving all striving for external power and all external power instruments, as also many have expressed in their struggle against the nuclear tests, that one member of EU has considered necessary to be able to develop nuclear arms further into the future.&nbsp;</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Europe should instead cultivate its task as a mediating factor and a bridge between "East" and "West" and as a possible cultural inspirator "with a heart" - with not only the culture of Western Europe but also of Eastern Europe, and into the future ever more also of Russia, as a great inspirational well, but with a great respect for the role of all cultural groups of humanity.&nbsp;</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; In that work we are all responsible to form and build the "European house" to an inspiration for a humanly dignified life, as a part of all our common responsibility for the future of mankind and for the earth.&nbsp;</font> <br><font color="#800040">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Only such a "good house" can also be generous and open to those that do not live in it, to visit freely and take part in.&nbsp;</font> </p><p><b><font color="#800040">BIBLIOGRAPHY</font></b> </p><ol> <li> <font color="#800040"><font size="-1">BAIGENT M, LEIGH R, LINCOLN H: The Holy Blood and the Holy Grail.
