The European Union implementation deficit has become proverbial failure. While the impact of Europe 2020 has yet to be researched in greater detail, existing work reveals substantial differences in implementation among the Member States, especially along the divisions between North and West on one hand and East and South on the other. Using the Cultural Political Economy as the theoretical background, the central focus of our interest is the study of possibilities and limitations of strategic steering of the economic development in the context of a comprehensive societal development, such as the Europe 2020 intention of achieving ‘smart, inclusive and sustainable growth’. %K EU’s grand strategies, Cultural Political Economy, smart,inclusive and sustainable growth %G English
