one of the 'launching' articles of this idea : see http://www.brusselsjournal.com/node/3058
It embarks on the two notions about the Union : the continent sees it as a political project to inhibit war, where the french think about a centralised organisation, but britain sees it moer as a kind of commonwhealt, an economic union.
