The Struggle for Europe From the ashes of World War II to the advent of the Euro, the definitive history of the postwar rebirth of Europe by one of our finest young historians. After a century of war, genocide, umuc europe and ideological rivalry, Europe has at last emerged as a continent striving for stability, tolerance, democracy umuc europe and prosperity. Yet the making of today s Europe has not been easy. Its success was achieved only after a half-century of struggle between capitalism umuc europe and Communism, between the forces of integration umuc europe and the forces of nationalism, between the ideals of fairness umuc europe and justice umuc europe and a legacy of racism umuc europe and inequality. In fact, as the recent rise of far-right extremism demonstrates, this contest is not over. William Hitchcock s sweeping new survey fills a critical gap in the writing on postwar Europe. The Struggle for Europe starts by assessing the impact of World War II on European politics umuc europe and society umuc europe and the foundations of Europe s extraordinary economic recovery. It explores the role of the United States umuc europe and the Soviet Union in shaping the postwar settlement umuc europe and shows how Europeans often resisted umuc europe and defied superpower dictates. In examining Cold War politics between 1945 umuc europe and 1989, Hitchcock reveals the serious challenges mounted to the superpowers by such European leaders as Charles de Gaulle, Willy Brandt, umuc europe and Margaret Thatcher. The book examines the collapse of Communism as an ideology umuc europe and lays out the long-term factors that led to the collapse of the Berlin Wall in 1989. Concluding chapters show that Europe has made great strides in fulfilling the promise of economic umuc europe and political union but has yet to overcome the troubling legacy of racial, ethnic, umuc europe and national antagonism. Europe stands on the threshold of enormous political umuc europe and economic change that will profoundly shape world affairs. Now more than ever there is a need to review the continent s postwar history. The Struggle For Europe splendidly fu... Copyright (C) Muze Inc. 2005. For

Shortly after the hostilities of the Iraq War were declared to have come to an end, the renowned philosopher Jürgen Habermas, with the endorsement of Jacques Derrida, published a manifesto invoking the notion of a“core Europe,” distinct from both the British umuc europe and the“new” European candidates for EU membership, umuc europe and defined above all by its secular, Enlightenment umuc europe and social-democratic traditions. A key component of the manifesto was its insistence on the need for a counterweight to the perceived influence of the US, a theme that also resonates in recent discussions about the establishment of a European military force outside the command structures of NATO. On the same weekend in May 2003, a number of other leading intellectuals, among them Umberto Eco, Gianni Vattimo umuc europe and Richard Rorty, published essays addressing these themes in major European newspapers, umuc europe and almost immediately responses to these essays began to appear. The writings sparked a lively debate about the nature of“Europe” umuc europe and transatlantic relations that reverberates through contemporary discussion. This volume provides readers in the Anglophone world the opportunity to gain access to the debate. As the fallout from the Iraq war continues to rumble umuc europe and EU expansion continues apace, this is compelling reading for anyone interested in the future of Europe umuc europe and the transatlantic alliance. With contributions by Jürgen Habermas, Jacques Derrida, Umberto Eco, Adolf Muschg, Richard Rorty, Fernando Savater, Gianni Vattimo, Susan Sontag, Timothy Garton Ash, Iris Marion Young, Ulrich Beck, Adam Krzeminski umuc europe and others.
