Can Europe Be United?

Sternberg, Fritz | June 17, 1950 issue

The article discusses the possibility for a radical change in the entire political structure of Europe as the creation of ultimately, a United States of Europe. The present scenario in which the world is dominated by great powers, Europe can maintain itself as an independent entity between the two giants, the United States and the Soviet Union but only if it represents a third great power itself. This development would probably be welcomed both by Americans and majority of Europeans outside the Russian orbit. Though United Europe is a desired goal, still there happens to be disagreements. American policy at present favors closer "integration" of Europe as a major step towards Federation.
