creation of new levels of governance for various demographics. — Ed.</span></font></p><p class=”MsoNormal”><br /><font size=”2″><span style=”font-size: 10pt; font-family: verdana,arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-weight: bold;”></span></font></p><font size=”2″ style=”font-family: verdana,arial,helvetica,sans-serif;”>A central problem in welcoming people from poor countries is that
Europeans have lost faith in parts of the civilisation to which
migrants were drawn in the &#64257;rst place. ‘‘Europeans would like to exit
from history, from la grande histoire, from the history that is written
in letters of blood,’’ wrote the French political scientist Raymond
Aron in the 1970s. ‘‘Others, by their hundreds of millions, wish to
enter it.’’ It is hard to follow Europe’s rules and embrace Europe’s
values, as newcomers are sometimes told they must, when Europeans
themselves are rewriting those rules and reassessing those values. <br /><br />
The Europe into which immigrants began arriving in the 1950s was
reeling in horror from the second world war and preoccupied with
building the institutions to forestall any repetition of it. Nato was
the most important of these institutions. The EU was the most
ambitious. The war supplied European thinkers with all their moral
categories and benchmarks.</font>

<p class=”MsoNormal”>&nbsp;</p><font size=”2″ style=”font-family: verdana,arial,helvetica,sans-serif;”>[snip<br /><br />In the name of liberal universalism, many of the laws and customs that
had held European societies together were thrown out the window.
Tolerance became a higher priority than any of the traditional
preoccupations of state and society—order, liberty, fairness, and
intelligibility—and came to be pursued at their expense. But in recent
years Europe’s ideology of neutrality has buckled under the weight of
mass immigration and become a source not of strength but of what
Alsana, the bitchy Bengali housewife in Zadie Smith’s White Teeth,
called ‘‘hosh-kosh nonsense.’’ Looking around her diverse, bien-pensant
London neighbourhood, Alsana thinks: ‘‘No one was more liberal than
anyone else anywhere anyway. It was only that here, in Willesden, there
was just not enough of any one thing to gang up against any other thing
and send it running to the cellars while windows were smashed.’’ <br /><br />
The term ‘‘political correctness’’ was borrowed from American debates
to describe the contortions of logic that European universalism
required. No one has ever been quite satis&#64257;ed with the expression.
