Abstract

LAST WEEK I TRIED to clarify what seem to me to be some of the basic characteristics of the liberal art of government. First of all I spoke about the probkm of economic truth and of the truth of the market, and then of the problem of the limitation of governmentality by the calculus of utility. I would now like to deal with a third aspect which I think is also fundamental, that of international equilibriums, or Europe and the international space in liberalism.
