Summary/Abstract: By analogy with the Th. Kuhn’s Concept of “Scientific Paradigm”, we tried to evaluate the initial theses of the European construction. Today's Europe is looking for answers within, and a "revival" of the joint project is needed. Globally, continuing to integrate the European economy is the obvious answer. The initial theses of the European construction remain valid, the continental integration being the strategy of economic competitiveness. Not the theories of the European paradigm need to be changed, but the economic outcomes should be more visible and convincing, throughout internal projects.
