Summary/Abstract: The global crisis in the financial and banking markets caused more than just financial and economic problems for the European Union. The Eurozone sovereign debt crisis also revealed the institutional weaknesses of the EU. The ineffectiveness of the proposed solutions intensified the political crisis of democratic legitimacy, as well as bringing about a serious social crisis.
