Re: The Economist agrees with you (none / 1)
Hmm, I haven't read it in a while. But I vaguely remember thinking similar things.

But would you agree that thea "myth" that is German-French reconciliation is probably less compelling outside France and Germany?

And "avoiding the wars of the past" is probably less compelling for younger generations?

(My grandparents lived through WW2, but my youngest niece never knew them, so how can it have the same resonance for her?)
