Abstract
ABSTRACT The text examines the implications of a changing world for Europe. The alternatives for this continent in crisis are or the defence of its position and the current institutions of uneven development or the necessity to adapt itself to a more modest role, an another type of development , inward oriented, socially inclusive and geared toward using the resources available within Europe itself. This last model would imply a rupture from the the current outward oriented and exclusionary model based economically on finance capital and exports. This new model would imply in social innovations, unity in diversity to enable a good life by fostering bonds of solidarity. Key words: Crisis; Europa; eco-social civilization.
