		<description>&lt;p&gt;The political construction of the European Union has broken down. Restarting it would require profoundly changing our ways of thinking about sovereignty, the people and democracy &#8211; we must find a new way of thinking about our citizenship.&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;When explaining European construction the Federal model is often alluded to, whether as a point of reference or as an ultimate goal. However we do have to be clear what this model means. For Olivier Beaud, Federation is a special form of political structure that cannot be grasped without detaching itself from the theory of the State.&lt;/p&gt;
