Modern life runs on semiconductors — cars, phones, wind turbines, medical devices, and every military system now depends on chips that Europe, for the most part, does not make itself. The most advanced logic chips, the ones powering AI systems and cutting-edge computing, are produced almost entirely by a handful of facilities in Taiwan, with […]
Europe invented much of the technology that now defines modern manufacturing, from precision engineering to industrial chemistry to semiconductor design. Yet increasingly, the actual production has drifted elsewhere — to the United States, drawn by subsidies and cheap energy, and to Asia, drawn by lower costs and, in many sectors, faster-moving supply chains. A continent […]
As climate policy becomes increasingly contested, Europe must adapt its Green Deal to a new political era. The first policy brief in the New Politics project outlines five new deals to make the transition more durable, popular and politically resilient.
