    La Belgique existe-t-elle ?
    in Pouvoirs , n. 136 ,  2011 ,  9-19
    Belgium was created in 1830 and developed gradually as a nation state. Such a situation could have lasted if it were not for the growth of the flemish movement, which remained restrained for some time but then was sanctioned in the institutional arrangements. The setting up of a federal state since 1970 has prolonged this evolution. In view of the emergence of a flemish nation, the preservation of the Belgium state requires that its political leaders manage to draft a new “agreement of the Belgian people”.
