If a clash of interests prevails,can Europe contain the ensuing struggle and makethe competition a non-zero-sum game? Or willeach nation in Europe be faced with a series of starkchoices between conflict and concession, winningand losing?I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
