Can Europe Survive?
Today, Europe is beset by a fast-changing, polarised world dominated by Chinese-American rivalry. How well equipped are the Europeans to face the coming challenges? Is their fall from grace irreversible? Or can Europe surmount Trump and Putin and usher in a new era of resilience? As Europe faces its gravest test since the Second World War, Marsh shows how Europe must find fresh reserves of resilience. Among the renewed international partnerships required for success, an improved relationship with the UK in finance, trade and security will be of paramount importance.

Co-founder and chairman of the OMFIF economic research group, he is a former Financial Times European editor and Germany correspondent and author of six books, including The New Germany, The Euro, and Europe’s Deadlock.
