I am interested in articulating a European “dream” and project, one that might draw from the American infatuation with Europe, as the author here outlines for himself, but also one that lives up to the reality of Europe today and the near-universalist definition of Europe by Milan Kundera: “Maximum diversity in minimum space”. What does a grounded, integrated, yet still promising and hopeful Europe look like?
