Now comprising 25 nations and 450 million citizens, the EU has more people, more wealth, and more votes on every international body than the United States. It eschews military force but offers guaranteed health care and free university educations. And some see the new “United States of Europe” as determined to be a superpower. Yup, som epeople really believe that.

When: Wednesday January 30 7:00 PM

Where: Church of the Saviour 6205 Rucker Road Indianapolis 46220

Speaker: John McCormick, Political Science IUPUI

This is part of the Church of the Saviour’s Great Decisions series. “Great Decisions” is a series of eight foreign policy topics selected by the Foreign Policy Association. The FPA commissions very solid articles about each topic, then assembles the articles into booklets that are used by a thousand groups around the country to explore the topics. It’s an excellent program, definitely worth engaging. What sets the Church of the Saviour’s program apart is that is a combination of adults and Lawrence North High School students. It’s the best interaction of older and younger learners that I know of in Indy. Cost for the series is $28 for individuals and families, which includes the FPA’s Great Decisions book.

Know before you go … The articles in the Great Decisions books are always excellent. And check out Provocate’s “For More Information about the European” page for recommended news, articles, books, and websites!

If this event sounds interesting … John Clark of Provocate provides a very different perspective on the EU February 12; Romanian scholar Aurelian Craitu speaks February 27.
