    La Belgique, vertige de l’Europe
    in Esprit , n. 353, mars/avril 2009 ,  2009 ,  31-43
    Belgium as Europe’s vertigo. The Belgian government has fallen victim to the economic crisis. The problem is that its fragility is here to stay and is not just yhre by-product of local antics. More than the nation’s mood, this fragility comes as a reflection of a country wondering about a collective future where Europe has a role. This is why Belgium may be seen as a harbinger of Europe’s own future, caught between a skeptical sense of nationhood and a crisis in political decision-making.
