Summary / Abstract (Note) | THE IDEA of Europe, in the minds of Westerners today, is an intellectual concept-liberal humanism with a geographical basis-that emerged through centuries of material and intellectual advancement, as well as a reaction to devastating military conflicts in previous historical ages. The last such conflict was World War II, which spawned a resolve to merge elements of sovereignty among democratic states in order to set in motion a pacifying trend. |
