摘要

The article concludes that the process of European unification is successful in many areas but also faces a lot of problems and challenges. To the very important ones belong the social inequalities, unemployment and the destruction of nature. Thanks to the development of science and technology the creation of new economical activities in Europe is possible. They can help to create new possibilities for both, the solving of the ecological problems and to create jobs in many sectors of economy. The contemporary management should play a very important role in this process. Europe as one of the first continents which started the dynamic process of industrialization and destroying of nature can also be the first one to unite the contemporary economy with pro-economical activities.
