"Penolakan terhadap Konstitusi Europa yang telah terjadi, ternyata bukanlah dikarenakan sisi formil ataupun sisi materil yang riil dari konstitusi itu kan tetapi lebih pada masalah pendapat dan interpretasi yang berkembang di tengah-tengah masyarakat terhadap isi konstitusi, dimana terdapat kecurigaan dan masih tersisanya tanda tanya besar akan masa depan mereka dengan peningkatan proses integrasi yang terus terjadi. Mereka membutuhkan penjelasan yang lebih mendalam akan hal ini. Para pemimpin Eropa seharusnya menilai hasil referandum yang terjadi di Prancis sebagai suatu pengalaman positif, karena tidak jarang terjadi perdebatan besar dan intensif pada masyarakat Eropa dalam setiap langkah proses integrasi apabila menyangkut interpretasi terhadap teks suatu dokumen hukum yang akan di berlakukan. Perkembangan yang terjadi saat ini yang melibatkan bangsa-bangsa Eropa membuktikan, bahwa Uni Eropa perlu melakukan reformasi dalam setiap upaya integrasi yang dilakukan dengan cara lebih melibatkan dan mendekatkan diri kepada masyarakatnya. Dengan kata lain, dapat dinyatakan bahwa "Suatu traktat yng konstitusional membutuhkan pemahaman dan dukungan sepenuhnya dari seluruh bangsa Eropa"."

"Menurut Altiero Spinelli-salah seorang pencetus gerakan penyatuan Eropa, demokrasi dapat menyatukan sekelompok negara-negara yang berdaulat demi meraih kepentingan bersama. Dalam pidatonya pada kongres Pendirian UEF tahun 1947, Spinelli menegaskan,bahwa Marshall Plan telah membuka kesempatan bagi Eropa untuk mewujudkan hal tersebut. Menurutnya, apabila bangsa-bangsa di Eropa gagal menggunakan kesempatan ini, maka Amerika Serikat akan menjejakkan kaki di Eropa dengan mengubah liberalisme menjadi imperialisme.Ia berpendapat bahwa penyatuan Eropa memiliki arti yang sangat penting sebagai langkah awal dari penyatuan dunia, sebagaimana disarankan dalam ventotene manifesto."

"This article argues that in the era of globalization, the European Union as 'the ultimate of modernity" is having a supremacy among other international actors. The preeminence is not laid only on hard powers such as military, economy,or political power, but mostly on the "area of knowledge" , signed by the domination of European discourses.European discourses are constructed by the history and traditions which are based on Hellenism.The dominance of European discourses is seen in every aspect in Indonesia. From this point, the article addresses us a reflective question: " Who are we,actually?""
