ABSTRACT
Justice without might is helpless; might without justice is tyrannical. (Blaise Pascal, c.1650, Pensées, fragment 94, trans. W.F. Trotter)
It is not very long ago that States became units of integration to which are attached, though in an ambivalent form, feelings of belonging to an ‘us’, relatively deep commitment and solidarity between all their nationals. The image of ‘us’ has changed; so it can change yet again.
