Résumé anglais Claudie Weill, The Succession of Empires in Europe The collapse of the Soviet empire completes the emergence of nation-states in Central and Eastern Europe begun by the First World War. Then as now, the criterion for judging the correspondance between national affirmation and democracy is the degree of respect for important minorities. But ethnic and national conflicts continue to occur in response to the economic and ecological crises responsible for the breakdown of social systems. The seemingly obligatory passage from national affirmation to nationalism and then to xenophobia constitutes a new but counterproductive way of dealing with social problems.
