Abstract: Taking a theoretical and normative stance, this article critically examines the inconsistency of the European Union's technological and economic goals for 2010 and the recent eastern enlargement, proposing a wider application of the notion of sustainability. Defining policies that tackle technological, economic, social and political sustainability will allow the addressing of widespread network failures, which represent a major hurdle for unfolding the innovative and economic potential of the Central and Eastern European Countries and of the EU-25 in general.
