Abstract

The article discusses the economic relations between Europe and Africa in relation to the document "Roadmap 2050: A Practice Guide to a Prosperous, Low-Carbon Europe" by the architecture firm Office of Metropolitan Architecture (OMA) through its research group AMO. The plan involves the energy region Enerope as a vision of the European Union (EU) as self-sufficient in energy resources, while using solar energy from North Africa. Other topics include the notion of North Africa as part of the Solaria region, mythological aspects of the plan, and the role of geography in the planning.
