THE RETURN TO THE BEGINNINGS OF TOMORROW
THE RETURN TO THE BEGINNINGS OF TOMORROW

Summary/Abstract: Is or isn’t the full and definitive unity of the European continent possible? Is this unity the result of an objective process of human society’s becoming or is it imposed by matters of competitiveness, and also, by political, economic, societal and military power and security matters? Which are the mechanisms used to fulfil (or not fulfil) this full unity? Which are or could be the horizons of waiting for a complete, firm and sustainable European construction? What are the states or the citizens going to loose and gain by such equally communitarian and unitary architecture? Are the states prepared to bear the success (or failure) of trans-nationalization and communization of power? Are the national and communitarian issues harmonized or in conflict on the road of primary European construction? How much from this becoming is internal determination of system and process and how much is external, meaning extra-European, determination? Even the answers to these questions – and many others -, are responded since 1815, some more sophisticated as others, the reality shows that they were not, are not and will not be satisfactory for much time ahead. Even the European frontiers seem to be some lines of a puzzle; the continent’s unity and thoroughness are still very far from a perfect normal shape. But, a return to the initial beginnings is not possible anymore because all these beginnings shifted to tomorrow.
