His book Berlin Rules:Europe and the German Way (2017) argued that Germany is the dominant power in the European Union,and uses that power to protect the German economy.[2] Lever argues that a federal Europe seems nonthreatening to federal Germany,and by embracing pan-Europeanism they can escape their past.[3] In Berlin Rules Lever points to the problems that are obvious in the vision for the EU's future that is advanced by Joschka Fischer and Wolfgang Schäuble.[4]
