Abstract

The management of the crisis in the European Union from the perspective of rationality of economic calculation has resulted in the adoption of a series of mechanisms that seek to rehabilitate the centrality of the economic bond, correcting institutional deficiencies of the eurozone. Therefore, far from being a transformation that redefines negative integration in terms of balance with social dimension, it delves into the status of subordination of positive integration. From these parameters, the fight against exclusion at the European level becomes a chimera. The limited practical effort of the social documents, the use of soft law techniques, and the devaluation of the right to protection against poverty to the limbo of programmaticity, accentuates the marginalization of the European social answer to the crisis.
