Europe as America’s Rival. The Edge Is Back<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ik denk, dat Haroon Sheikh (en met hem anderen) gelijk heeft, dat Europa in de grond een rivaal is van Amerika (NRC 12\/12\/25 opinie Trump betuttelt en beledigt Europa \u2013 maar erkent het ook als rivaal). Immers, juist de gedeelde waarden die Europa in haar partnerschap met Amerika heeft gehad sinds de Tweede Wereldoorlog waren de kurk die welvaart en voorspoed brachten op het Westelijk halfrond. Instituties, gezamenlijk opgericht \u00e9n onderschreven, hebben ervoor gezorgd, dat er vrede is geweest en een rechtvaardige samenleving op basis van democratische regels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maar het is ook duidelijk: als het te gemakkelijk wordt, dan verlies je scherpte. En met het van oudsher vooringenomen beeld, dat de Europeaan heeft van een in alles ‘bigger, better, stronger’ Amerikaan, had Europa dit gekwetste ego wellicht kunnen voorzien. Het zij zo. De scherpte is er weer. In de kern is en blijft de economische kracht van de oude wereld groot. De isolationistische koers van de oude partner opent mogelijkheden voor nieuwe economische \u00e9n militaire allianties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I think Haroon Sheikh (and others with him) is right that Europe is fundamentally America’s rival (NRC 12\/12\/25 opinion piece: Trump patronizes and insults Europe \u2013 but also recognizes it as a rival). After all, it was precisely the shared values \u200b\u200bthat Europe has had in its partnership with America since World War II that were the pillar that brought prosperity and wealth to the Western Hemisphere. Institutions, jointly founded and endorsed, have ensured peace and a just society based on democratic rules.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But it is also clear: if things become too easy, you lose your edge. And with the traditionally biased image that Europeans have of an American who is ‘bigger, better, stronger’ in every way, Europe might have anticipated this bruised ego. So be it. The edge is back. At its core, the economic power of the old world is and remains great. The isolationist course of the old partner opens up opportunities for new economic and military alliances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
