The dissolution of the EU would appear to contradict the trend for the monopolization and centralization of power, but I don’t think so. If the European Union is dismantled, each state will operate independently and in its own interest, and this will give multinational corporations and financial institutions even greater leverage over each state’s government; so essentially, the centralization of control currently manifested by the European Parliament would simply be consolidated and transferred directly to the higher tier of the power hierarchy.
Wikileaks released the transcript of a teleconference earlier this year in which top IMF officials flatly admitted that they are deliberately trying to destabilize Europe for the purpose of expanding the authority of the IMF, so this prediction seems quite in line with the agenda of private power.
The Troika represents nothing if it does not represent the interests of the financial elite; and, as it is not a body bound to European law, it will continue with its role, even if the political form or mechanisms change in Europe.
The Muslim population in Europe is expected to grow considerably over the next several decades. As of 2014, the average fertility rate in the EU was 1.58, and half the population is over 42 years old. Roughly 50% of the current workforce will retire in about 25 years, and 30% fewer indigenous Europeans will enter the job market.
The median age of Muslims in Europe, however, is much younger, around 32 years old. The fertility rate of Muslims in Europe is also higher, averaging at least 2 children per couple, and with the rates of immigration, by 2050, Muslims are likely to constitute over 10% of the population of Europe, and by 2100, perhaps over 25%.
These demographic trends are irreversible and may actually accelerate. The growth of the Muslim population in Europe will, predictably, provide an even greater impetus to transfer authority away from democratic processes. The changing culture of Europe will cause it to be necessarily marginalized in the global power hierarchy, and more eligible for subjugation. Muslims may be excited about the growth of their numbers in Europe, thinking that this will mean that the power of Europe may fall more under the influence of Muslims; but what it is far more likely to mean is that the power of Europe will fall, period.
