Talk:Pax Europeana

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

  • What about the role of the US in securing peace in the aftermath of WWII? Surely the EU is the chief defender of stability in modern Europe, but I think the influence of the US in post-WW2 is not mentioned.--RexRex84 20:31, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
As far as I know (and correct me if I'm wrong), the role of the US is recognized in this term, but considers it to be of secondary importance. Note however that this page is about the meaning of the term Pax Europeana, and is not about what happened in reality. See for instance the contrast of this perspective with that of Pax Americana, which attributes the peace in Europe almost completely to American power and hegemony.

Certainly the write up should include at least a passing mention of the contemporaneous (and presumably rival) concept of Pax Americana and some description of how they differ. 66.122.73.102 03:35, 17 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Europeana?

That sounds rather English. Surely it is really "Pax Europea"? --61.68.108.167 03:10, 31 December 2006 (UTC)
