Symbols play a vital part in the ideological struggles of to-day. Ever since there first arose the question of European, organisation, a large number of suggestions have more particularly been produced in its connection, some of which, despite their shortcomings, have for want of anything ;. better .been employed by various organisations and private ' individuals. A number of writers have pointed out how urgent and important it is that a symbol should be adopted, and the Secretariat-General has repeatedly been asked to provide I a description of the official emblem of the Council of Europe and has been forced to admit that no such emblem exists. Realising the importance of the matter, a number of French Members of Parliament^ have proposed in the National Assembly that the symbol of the European Movement be flown together with the national flag on public buildings. Private movements such as'the Volunteers of Europe have also been agitating for the flying of the European Movement colours on the occasion of certain French national celebrations. In Belgium the emblem of the European Movement was used during the "European Seminar of 1950" by a number of *•*: individuals, private organisations and even public institutions.

  • Why Flags Don't Change
    LECTURE Dragons, Traditions, Emperors and Revolutions: An overview of flags and flag changes in Asia By Ralph Kelly At the Buenos Aires ICV, I presented a paper [1] that reviewed the changes in national flags in Latin America since independence, identifying patterns in the historical and current national flags with the aim of trying to understand why national flags change. Today, I will replicate that analysis for Asia. Firstly I need to define the area called “Asia”. “Asia” is as much a cultural concept as geographical area, so somewhat arbitrarily, I have chosen to restrict my vexillological analysis to include only the countries of Eastern and Southern Asia, excluding most Islamic countries of Central Asia as they have more historical and cultural affinity with the Middle East than with Eastern Asia.[2] In Latin America, independence from Spain or Portugal was a convenient starting point for my analysis. However in Asia, the colonial experience was far more diverse and in many ways had less impact on the nations in the region than in Latin America. The major Asian nations can date their foundations to the 12th and 14th Centuries and their cultures even earlier. For example, with a traditional date of Vietnamese independence of 939, the period of French colonialism from 1858 to 1954 can be regarded as merely an interruption to national sovereignty. The latter of 1859, 150 years ago, or the date of the first known flag for a country is a convenient, but arbitrary starting point for my analysis of Asian national flags. As with all non-European countries, information on early flags is far less available and reliable than desired.
