Strategic Thinking for Europe.
The European Strategy Institute Luxembourg is an independent think tank based in Luxembourg, focused on Europe’s role as a political actor on the global stage and Luxembourg’s position within it. Our work addresses the institutional, economic, and security foundations that shape European power.
At a time when political norms are being weakened, contested, or abandoned, ESILUX seeks to contribute to a renewed strategic vision of Europe as a normative power. Not as an abstract ideal, but as a political project that must be articulated, debated, and defended.
Focus Area
Our work is organized around a small number of core research areas that address the political, economic, and institutional foundations of European power.
Through research, expert dialogue, and public engagement, we seek to contribute to informed debate on Europe’s strategic choices – and on Luxembourg’s role within them.
Europe’s role in a changing global security order, including deterrence, alliances, and strategic responsibility.
