Jean Monnet at the Council on Foreign Relations: The Enduring Relevance of a Vision Based on Unity<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n

On March 9, 2026, the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) hosted a screening in New York of *Jean Monnet, the Adventurer of Europe*<\/em>, a documentary co-written by Jean-Marc Lieberherr, Founding President of the Institut Jean Monnet, and historian \u00c9ric Roussel.<\/p>\n\n

The screening was followed by a discussion moderated by Leah Pisar, featuring Rudina Hajdari and Benjamin L. Schmitt, CFR term members, who explored the relevance of Jean Monnet\u2019s vision and actions today.<\/p>\n\n

At the heart of the discussion was a particularly timely message: in a world where some favor power politics and narrow national interests, peace and shared prosperity remain inseparable from unity, collective action, and common institutions governed by the rule of law. Monnet\u2019s legacy serves as a reminder of the importance of determination and imagination in sustaining the European project.<\/p>\n\n
