In this age of transformation into the digital age. We are analyzing the progress in Europe, not the conflicts, but instead the trends, innovation, and what is around the next corner of the development. We have just started the project Interactive Trend Analysis with the aim of finding new innovative ways to visualize and interactiveize the production of trend analyses. This is alongside a number of other new features that Europatrends plans to introduce in the coming months.
European trends from an EU, innovation, regional, and city perspective are a deliberate choice in order to start with the main engines of European development. In this way, the Europeans and Europe are analyzed from a trend perspective. But, what about the nations then? The answer is that it is they who mainly throw sand in the development often only because of their own hegemonic ambitions. Thus, it is not a level to analyze European trends from, but they function more as obstacles and resistance to Europe’s common development potential.
