Shortly after the hostilities of the Iraq War were declared to have
come to an end, the renowned philosopher Jurgen Habermas, with the
endorsement of Jacques Derrida, published a manifesto invoking the
notion of a "core Europe," distinct from both the British and the
"new" European candidates for EU membership, and defined above all
by its secular, Enlightenment 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 and Richard
Rorty, published essays addressing these themes in major European
newspapers, and almost immediately responses to these essays began
to appear. The writings sparked a lively debate about the nature of
"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 and EU expansion
continues apace, this is compelling reading for anyone interested
in the future of Europe and the transatlantic alliance.
