Przywódcza rola Niemiec w Europie i świecie w niemieckim dyskursie naukowym

The debt crisis in the eurozone has triggered a heated debate on the FRG’s new role in Europe. Germany’s growing significance in the remedies enacted within the eurozone was an impulse for deliberations about the optimal strategies that would take into account the domestic economic interests of particular countries on the one hand and the cohesion of European integration on the other as well as the expectations of the countries experiencing the effects of the crisis. German political scientists unanimously claim that the expectations of Germany’s partners and allies as to its engagement in solving problems within the EU are instrumental in compelling Germany to assume some kind of “co-leadership” role in the EU.
