Royalist Revival in Central Europe

In the spiritual void of Middle Europe, says Mr. Wilhelmsen, a supra-national monarchism is winning followers with its demand for a new European federation under Cross and Crown

Today Central Europe is suffering: it suffers from the flu: from Thornton Wilder; from the tragedy of the Pamir; from Little Rock; from the Russian satellites. Yet Europe prefers to suffer these things, even the satellites, than to think about the Russian armies poised in the east. Europe prefers not to think about its own future. This is to say that Europe today is a vacuum, a vacuum separating an élite from a mob.
