WHICH BOUNDARIES? WHOSE HISTORY?

From my youth, I remember the last world war, and I know the value of the peace, stability and prosperity which we have today. . . . The wars and atrocities in former Yugoslavia have demonstrated what Europeans can do to each other when forces of disintegration are allowed to overtake the wish for unity. The enlargement of the European Union to me, therefore, is the fulfillment of a vision.

—Wim Kok, prime minister of the Netherlands, 2003

When European imperialists march to the east, they eventually lose in the west. The elastic is overstretched.

—Simon Jenkins, Sunday Times, June 2005
