- The main role in European integration process was played by prominent European politicians called „Fathers of Europe” or „Builders of European Unity”. The federalists predominated among them. They dreamed of common and strong European state similar to the United States. The prime minister of Great Britain – Winston Churchill in his reference to mutual tradition of European nations – inspired the possibility of creating the United Europe in Zurich on 19-th Sept. 1946. This project was supported by Robert Schuman, Konrad Adenauer, Paul Henri Spaak, Altiero Spinelli, and Alicide De Gasperi. Jean Monnet proposed a sector method when perceiving ineffectiveness of the original project. For this reason he suggested the concept of small steps in constructing European structure oriented toward tightening interstate links. This way, the first stage of this concept was implemented through linking French and German sectors of coal and steel. This proposal was supported by French Minister of Foreign Affairs – R. Schuman on 9 May 1951 and named by his surname. The creation of federal structure of Europe was the ambition of „Fathers of Europe”. However, strong reluctance of some states and politicians caused integration mainly in the area of economy. The dynamic political and economic integration occurred after appointing European Union in 1992 based upon federalism. At present the European Union is neither federation nor confederation, because each state possesses its own sovereignty and freedom in the sphere of international relations. In essence, the European Union has an institutionalized form of cooperation between states. Consequently, the European Union can be understood both as international organization and a specific union of states. The success of „Fathers of Europe” is the United Europe, which engulfs the majority of European states and tends to further enlargement. However, the progress in integration of European Union is significant, the process of limiting the role of national states in favor of European Commonwealth is yet a distant project.
