The Ideas of a European Entity in the International Relations between the XIX and the First Half of XX Century

The history of the European integration has been played and thought for more than a century and until the second half of the Twentieth Century almost always outside the state's circles. With rare exceptions the idea of Europe has been recalled and played only in the cultural and elitists circles. Until the 1950s, when the construction of Europe became a topic of the international politics, only in very few cases the integration of the European countries came up as a topic of international politics.
