abstract = {This article explores the ways cosmopolitanism, federalism and constitutionalism have evolved in Europe from core philosophical concepts to political programmes, and ultimately ‘ideological benchmarks’ with highly contested meanings. I identify three alternative intellectual strategies for their appropriation, and through them the appropriation of ‘Kant’s mantle’, which both reflect and affect the EU public sphere. In the process, I ask how they can serve as resources conceptually to ground a third way for Europe. First, essentialist strategies appeal to affinities with the essence of these traditions, an essence anterior to or distinct from the particular variant of the ‘state writ large’ with which they might be identified in the public and scholarly imagination. Second, composite strategies employ various modifiers to deflect criticism. Thirdly, pollination strategies retain the flavor and questions raised by the three isms without necessarily coopting their labels.},

abstract = {The paper offers a defence of ambivalence as a response to the political polarisation of our era using multiple languages to present its case from psychology to sociology, political science, philosophy and critical theory. It suggests that the Brexit story can be told in a different key, whereby the politics that have led to entrenching ‘leave’ and ‘remain’ identities overlay a harder to assess ambivalence about the EU both in the UK and in the EU, a dynamic referred to as the ‘Machiavelli Trap.’ Accordingly, we ought to ground the future relationship in the recognition of the ‘Brexit paradox’ (you can leave and therefore you shouldn't), and its implications for the core principles that have shaped the Brexit debate and negotiations. In the end, the paper offers a plea for a politics that allows citizens to tune into their constructive ambivalence about the fundamental tension between control and cooperation which pervades both Brexit, EU and global politics at large.},

abstract = {Mainstream studies of European Union (EU) external action are typically Eurocentric, neglecting the perspectives of many to whom such action is directed. This chapter explores the challenges of ‘decentring’ EU external action by importing insights from post-colonial studies into what we call ‘Global EU External Action Studies’. We suggest that when it comes to the EU, the ‘post’ in post-colonialism can refer to two distinct meanings. Analytically, ‘post’-colonial practices refer to the reproduction of hierarchical logics. Normatively, ‘post’-colonialism refers to the desirable transcendence of these logics. We propose a three-step approach to decentring as strategy towards a post-colonial Europe in the second sense: ‘provincializing’ the EU’s experience, ‘engaging’ others’ views, and ‘reconstructing’ EU external action. We then turn to sites where the EU’s external relations have been characteristically Eurocentric, namely Turkey and the Middle East and North Africa. We conclude by identifying possible pathways to reconstructing relations in a ‘multilogical’ fashion.},

abstract = {Si les principaux acteurs de la colonisation furent le Royaume-Uni, la France, les Pays-Bas, l’Espagne, le Portugal, l’Italie et la Belgique, l’ensemble de l’Europe en a profité sur le plan économique et financier. Face aux nombreuses exactions commises et à une décolonisation souvent sanglante, qu’en est-il du travail de mémoire et de la reconnaissance des oppressions ? Ne serait-il pas temps de s’excuser et d’indemniser, comme le réclament de plus en plus de victimes, d’historiens et de politiques ? Vox pop a mené l’enquête en Belgique, où les métis nés dans les anciennes colonies demandent réparation à l’État : ils ont été à l’époque arrachés à leur mère et victimes de ségrégation. Puis, Nora Hamadi s’entretient avec Kalypso Nicolaïdis, professeure en relations internationales à l’université d’Oxford et responsable du groupe de travail sur le colonialisme, et Bruno Sena Martins, anthropologue et professeur à l’université de Coimbra, au Portugal. Enfin, place aux correspondants de l’émission : Abdelkader Benali explique qu’aux Pays-Bas de nombreux citoyens ont encore la nostalgie de "l’empire perdu". Johannes Kulms, lui, ouvre une fenêtre sur l’Allemagne, où l’on veut cesser d’honorer d’anciens colonisateurs.},
