Fjordman : The End is Near Its Called the European Union
 From the desk of FjordmanFrancis Fukuyama believes we are still at the End of History, and the end is called the European Union. I don't know whether the EU spells the end of history, but do I suspect it could spell the end of Europe: The history at the end of history By Francis Fukuyama The End of History was never linked to a specifically American model of social or political organization. Following Alexandre Kojeve, the Russian-French philosopher who inspired my original argument, I believe that the European Union more accurately reflects what the world will look like at the end of history than the contemporary United States. The EUs attempt to transcend sovereignty and traditional power politics by establishing a transnational rule of law is much more in line with a post-historical world than the Americans continuing belief in God, national sovereignty and their military.
