The United States of Europe

Hobson, John A. | October 30, 1929 issue

The Pan-Europa campaign conducted for the past ten years by Count Koudenhove-Calergi cannot be said to have made any deep impression upon practical politicians. There is one preliminary difficulty that confronts us, namely, the scope of the Europe whose union is envisaged. It does not seem to include that large tract of Russia which comes within the geographical area of Europe. If it be Sheld that the Union of Europe that is desiderated would exclude these external possessions, one can only reply that such a ruling renders impossible any effective economic or fiscal unity, such as by common admission forms the core of reality in any European federation hitherto conceived.
