Summary

We Europeans Summary

We Europeans by Richard Hill

The united Europe is all about people - people who differ in their tastes and habits but share the same values and ideals. This book describes these people, then attacks stereotypes of them, ending with a witty analysis of each of the cultures making up the Continent. Hill enlarges his theme with a comparative study analysis of value systems and lifestyles, how people communicate, relate to one another and do business. The final chapter examines recent events and offers thoughts on where we go from here.

Part 1 The folklore factor. Part 2 An alternative history of Europe. Part 3 We Europeans: the British - a sentimental society; the French - the inquisitive individualists; the Germans - the methodological mystics; the Spanish - the egocentric egalitarians; the Italians - the artless aesthetes; the Belgians - the open-minded opportunists; the Dutch - the democratic dogmatists; the Swiss - the practical pacifists; the Austrians - the sentimental schizos; the Celtic fringe - the wonder in the west; the Nordics - shyness and social experimentation; the Portugese - the passive romanticists; the Greeks - the intelligent improvisers; the Slavs - a cultural stew. Part 4 A case of varying values. Part 5 The demands of daily life. Part 6 Us and them. Part 7 Here parle man Europees. Part 8 The Europeans in business. Part 9 Common factors and divisions. Part 10 Where do we go from here?
