Extract

I consider the papers on Richard von Kralik and Hans Eibl as pilot studies of a post-empire problem that should receive a good deal more attention than it has up to now. After all, since the Second World War most of Europe is post-imperial: Great Britain, Holland, Belgium, France, Italy, Austria, the Germanies have all shed their empires. The transformation of a Great Britain into a Little England entails difficult psychological, economic, social, and political adjustments. This is also true with other European powers that have been denuded of their former colonies.
