"If we don't find the soul of Europe by the end of the century, the game will be up" said Jacques Delors in 1989. How has the Council of Europe helped in this quest over the fifty years of its existence? The contributors to this collection of essays & articles - some from outside Europe & from widely differing cultures & faiths - look to the origins & meaning of the Council of Europe to examine the systems, values & dreams which Europe requires for the next millennium From the historical reminiscences of the early days of post-war European institutions by Cosmo Russel, Peter Smithers & Barney Milligan to the dreams of a new Europe expressed by Vaclav Havel & George Carey, Archbishop of Canterbury, this collection also includes Ziauddin Sardar's analysis of an unfeeling West & a plea for a new respect for the environment by Diana Schumacher.

This collection of essays by ten leading British and French Renaissance specialists explores, for the first time, differing conceptions of Europe in Renaissance France. Four essays concentrate on problems of definition in ideological, chronological, geographical and linguistic terms, concentrating on the relationship between Christendom and Europe, Antiquity and its Renaissance heirs, and Latin and the vernacular languages of south-western France. A further three essays address cultural exchange and political collaboration (and, inevitably, conflict) between France and England at the time of the Wars of Religion,exploring Catholic and Protestant reactions to the battle of Lepanto, Anglo-French Protestant espionage and pragmatic conceptions of the state based on geography rather than religion. The final three contributions focus on the construction of a European identity in the early modern period that defines itself in contrast to a significant other, be it Islamic or ‘Atlantic’, with particular reference to the presentation of Turkish characters in the work of Christian writers, exotic travel in the work of François Rabelais and the genre of the Livre des contrariétés. This volume will be of interest to scholars and students of French Renaissance literature and to those interested in the prehistory of our contemporary conception of Europe.

This volume emerged from an international colloquium held in April 1995 in Antwerp, Belgium, on the subject of `Europe and Refugees'. It analyses the various challenges posed by the plight of refugees today, paying particular attention to the situation in Europe, and to the new European treaties such as the Dublin Convention, the Schengen Agreement and the Resolutions of the European Union. Europe and Refugees: A Challenge? offers the reader both an international and a multidisciplinary vision. Its contributors come from both within and outside Europe, and are drawn from a large range of disciplines including philosophy, political science and law. This volume contains contributions in English and French.

Koonz’s latest work reveals how racial popularizers developed the infrastructure and rationale for genocide during the so-called normal years before World War II. Challenging conventional assumptions about Hitler, Koonz locates the source of his charisma not in his summons to hate, but in his appeal to the collective virtue of his people, the Volk.
