Europe Is an Adjective, Not a Map, Writer Argues

Original: Europe is an adjective, not a map

A commentary on Emerging Europe argues that Europe should be understood as an idea or set of values rather than a strictly geographic territory, hence the phrase that Europe is an adjective, not a map. The piece touches on long-running debates about where Europe begins and ends and which countries belong, a question that resurfaces whenever EU enlargement, identity and borders are discussed.

Why now: Debates over European identity and enlargement keep raising the question of what actually defines Europe.
