European federalism.

      Аннотация: The motives of European integration and formation of a "European federalism" are peace, democracy, idealism, belonging to a particular community of values, improvement of the economic standard, a greater influence on the common and security policy, a more efficient solving of cross-border problems, and finally, a strengthening of friendship and neighborly relationship. Its goals are the formation of a Federal State and "United States of Europe", respectively, hereby considering the principle of subsidiarity. The discussions on the future development of Europe often reveal the contrast of clearly defined viewpoints: the model of a "European Federal State", the opposing model of "Confederacy of European States", the model of "Europe of Regions", and the model of "Differentiated integration".
