Yes it's often tedious, obscure, dull, and grindingly bureaucratic. It's also one of the most beautiful things our human race has ever done. Especially when you remember the alternatives in which so many young men so horribly suffered and so uselessly perished ... 15/x — PolitiTweet.org

Both Hungary and Romania - ditto the other states except Ukraine that hold former Hungarian territories - could be borderless neighbors, governed by the same cheerful accommodation in South Tyrol, or Alsace-Lorraine, or Schleswig-Holstein, or other former slaughterhouses 11/x — PolitiTweet.org

And the same way of doing things could and should work well enough to soothe the hurts left behind by the Treaty of Trianon. Instead of fretting where to draw the border between Hungary and Romania - just make the border matter less. 10/x — PolitiTweet.org

There are no perfect solutions to anything in this imperfect world. No doubt there are many dissatisfactions invisible to a tourist who speaks neither German, nor Slovene, nor Italian, nor the local language known as Ladin. But ... it works well enough. 9/x — PolitiTweet.org

Which they can easily do, because today Italy, Austria, and Slovenia are bound together in the European Union. There's no need to fight any more over which national government delivers the mail and ploughs the snow in the South Tyrol. 7/x — PolitiTweet.org

And as you ride the chair lifts, you discover you are surrounded by Austrians and Slovenes and others whose great-grandparents fought on the other side of the terrible battles of 1915-1918. And ... they're not mad! They ski and eat! If they want a house, they buy one! 6/x — PolitiTweet.org

My family and I went skiing earlier this month in one of the places classically described as "irredenta": the South Tyrol, formerly German-speaking and Habsburg-ruled, but since 1919, annexed to Italy. 3/x — PolitiTweet.org

Irredentism is now used to describe the ambition of governments to hack off and annex pieces of neighboring territory - as the Hungarian far right wants to do not only to Ukraine, but also to Romania and other neighbors. 2/x — PolitiTweet.org
David Frum @davidfrum
Irredentism traces back to an Italian word meaning "unredeemed" - places and territories coveted by Italian nationalists even after they assembled their state in the 1850s and 1860s. 1/x — PolitiTweet.org
