"There is a new political dividing line in Europe, at least as important as the old line between left and right. It splits existing parties and throws up new ones. It opens new fronts between nations as well as parties. On one side, there is the camp of Merkron (Merkel-Macron), on the other, that of Orbvini (Orbán-Salvini)." --Timothy Garton Ash [1]


"Underpinning these material facts of giving, whether in cash, kind or work, is a mental phenomenon. It has been called moral globalisation. Increasingly, citizens of rich countries identify with people far away and see themselves as having some moral obligation towards them."--"What will be left?" (2005) by Timothy Garton Ash[2]

Timothy Garton Ash (1955) is a British historian, author and commentator. Much of his work has been concerned with the late modern and contemporary history of Central and Eastern Europe.

He has written about the Communist regimes of that region, their experience with the secret police, the Revolutions of 1989 and the transformation of the former Eastern Bloc states into member states of the European Union. He has examined the role of Europe and the challenge of combining freedom and diversity, especially in relation to free speech.
