In the stunning "Brexit" vote - with 52 percent wanting to abandon the 28-nation European Union - U.K. voters rejected the West's politics-as-usual despite dire warnings about the downsides of leaving. They voted, in effect, to assert their own nationalistic needs and aspirations over a commitment to continental unity and its more universal goals.
