In this powerful episode of Inside CVC, Steve and Philipp are joined by Gerald Knaus, founding chairman of the European Stability Initiative and author of The European Miracle and Its Enemies.

Knaus reflects on how post-war Europe built an unprecedented framework of peace, democracy, and economic cooperation—and why that “European miracle” is now under its greatest threat since 1949. From the war in Ukraine to the rise of populist movements and waning transatlantic trust, he explores what’s at stake and what leaders—corporate, civic, and political—must do to defend Europe’s most vital competitive advantage: the rule of law.

Listeners will hear:

• Why complacency and forgotten history threaten Europe’s foundation of peace
• How corporate leaders can strengthen Europe’s unity and innovation through the rule of law
• What a truly independent, secure, and globally competitive Europe could look like by 2050
