Two men were particularly striking: James Pratt and John Smith, who had been convicted of homosexuality.

Wie het heden én de toekomst wil begrijpen, kan niet om de geschiedenis heen. Europa heeft een lange en roerige voorgeschiedenis met zijn buren. Waar de geografische grenzen al sinds mensenheugenis vastliggen, zijn de door de mens getrokken staatsgrenzen vrijwel voortdurend verschoven.

Of naar het koloniale tijdperk, waarin de Europeanen in Afrika, Azië en het Midden-Oosten de dienst uitmaakten en willekeurig grenzen trokken, wat leidde tot gruwelijke oorlogen. De randen van Europa zijn al veel langer rafelig.
