L'idée d'Europe en Europe centrale durant la période de l'entre-deux-guerres

This article is about a project of research concerning the idea of Europe in Central Europe between the two world wars. The issue of the peace making let it creative a new European map, with new states, new borders, but also new recriminations between these new actors in the European relations. In order to avoid a new conflict in the Danubian area, some thinkers decided to imagine new ways to make cooperate these states, economically and politically, as they did under the Habsburg period. The model of French-German efforts to unify themselves could desserve some Central Europeans thinkers when they exposed their plans. This article choose to briefly present four of them: Oszkar Jászi's project of "United States of Danube", Diner-Dénes' proposition for an economical Danubian cooperation, a project of Danubian confederation under French rule, proposed by Dr. Halmos, and an original plan of a Hungarian writer, Dezső Szabó. The objective of this study is about to show the pregnance of the idea of Europe in the Danubian region and in the same way, to show that these ideas were not just discussed in West Europe during the interwar period, but were a part of a really global move of think in the whole continent.
