| Abstract: | Europeanisation is here to stay. Our insularity may proclaim a natural state of separatism; but geography conceals a deeper truth: the inevitability of externality management for small island states like ours.The Maltese have braved waves of Gallicisation, Italianisation and Anglicisation (in that order) over the last two centuries (MalliaMilanes, 1988). External powers have attempted to acculturalise the Maltese at large, with the support of local elites, in order to ensure and secure their sympathy and loyalty as the citizens of a strategic fortress colony (Hull, 1993). The 1990's have seen a new trend: the systematic attempts at Europeanising Malta, not by foreigners this time, but from a broad coalition within. |
