Unionism in Belgium
In the politics of Belgium, Unionism or Union of Opposites (''union des oppositions'') is a Belgian political movement which existed from the 1820s to 1846. In the present day, the term 'unionists' is sometimes used in a Belgian context to describe those who oppose the partition of Belgium, such as members of the Belgische Unie – Union Belge party.
==History==
It existed before and after the Belgian Revolution of 1830 and advocated the union of Roman Catholics and liberals against the policies of William I of the Netherlands. The new nation's motto, ''L'Union fait la force'' or unity makes strength, referred to this union rather than to the union of the country's different linguistic communities.
The liberals were initially quite favourable towards the lay policy of William's enlightened absolutism but more and more they changed their attitude, giving less and less importance to their struggle against church influence and more and more importance to political liberties, which William I was obstinately refusing to grant. Those following this new trend were known as 'radical liberals', as opposed to the 'Voltairian liberals' (libéraux voltairiens) who supported the englightened absolutist regime and gave rise to Orangism.
This evolution enabled the 'radical liberals' to make a compromise with the Catholics, who were ready to make certain concessions as to the freedom of the press and freedom of religion in return. From 1825, Étienne de Gerlache made a failed attempt at a compromise and reconciliation. At the end of 1827, in Liège, the Catholic newspaper ''le Courrier de la Meuse'' and the liberal newspaper ''Mathieu Laensbergh'' underwent a rapprochement. The union was decisively concluded on 8 November 1828 when the liberal Brussels newspaper ''le Courrier des Pays-Bas'' rallied to this policy in an article by Louis De Potter.
In the years following the Belgian Revolution, and after the exclusion of the radical democrats and the republicans (including De Potter), the unionist policy was imposed as a necessity in continuing Belgium's independence. Belgium's first cabinets were thus 'unionist', allying the conservative nobility with moderate elements from the rising liberal middle class. This formula allowed the structures of the new state to be consolidated, stable political and judicial institutions to be put in place and accords on centralization, the cities' and provinces' roles and primary education to be signed.〔 (Gubin and Jean-Pierre Nandrin, ''Nouvelle Histoire de Belgique'' volume I, tome 2, ''La Belgique libérale et bourgeoise'' - Éditions Complexe 2005, ISBN 2-8048-0066-0 )〕
However, dissension between Catholics and liberals became increasingly strong, on questions such as the clergy's role in civil society or the state taking over responsibility for education and public welfare. Unionism was finally ended by the foundation of the Liberal Party in 1846 and the first Liberal Party government the following year. The Catholic party would gradually be created in response and Belgium was ruled by single-party governments from one or other of these two parties until the socialist movement arose and reached power thanks to the institution of universal suffrage in 1948.
