Lionel Curtis believed that Western Civilization virtues and culture could be permanently fostered only within an integrated global political (and economic) system around the British Empire, and involving Britain in a program of generosity, trust, and freedom toward the Dominions, colonies, and all other countries. In a word, he considered Western Civilization (and more especially British Civilization) the only one, really. See Quigley, The A-A Estab., p 64.
Even France and Germany did not qualify for this Civilizational club of one. Quigley, p.133.
