| The flag bearing twelve yellow stars on a blue background has become Europeâ s most recognisable symbol. Since its introduction by the Council of Europe in 1955, it has stood for the unification of Europeâ s nation states. It was precisely this yellow circle of stars that prevailed over more than 150 flag ideas sent to the Council of Europe by a host of diverse private individuals. These colourful designs are being now published in Rejected for the first time. They document the continentâ s zeitgeist at a decisive period in the development of European unity. Alongside the flag proposals, the trilingual book (English, German, French) features a written contribution by the German-French poet and writer Marie Rotkopf, who tackles the EUâ s neoliberal political cynicism and Germanyâ s expansion of power with biting irony.
