COLLOQUE INTERNATIONAL
“L’EUROPEEN ET LA GUERRE”
~ Livret de présentation ~
General Presentation
INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE « EUROPEANS AND WARS »
Starting with the colloquium "Europeans and Wars ", the French Military Academy
of Saint-Cyr is launching a research program touching on conflict issues in their
cultural dimensions and aiming at stirring up critical reflection on European
Defence achievements and perspectives.
At stake is the real meaning of war in Europe, for if the European construction
derives from a refusal of war, it is to be wondered if a common strategic practice
seems possible.
This two-day colloquium is seeking to establish a progressive approach from
fundamental to applied research on four main themes:
- The weight of the History of conflicts involving European Nations and the
perception of the Other.
- The existence of a European strategic culture.
- The problem of human and tactical interoperability.
- A critical assessment of the European cooperation in Defence matters.
I would be extremely pleased and honoured if you could attend this event taking
place on November 24th and 25th, 2010. You will find (attached?) the colloquium
program herewith.
