String to unicode - duplicating by function the effect of u prefix

I'm looking for a way to convert a string to it's unicode "brother". This means: stringOne = "\u0026" stringTwo = u"\u0026" print unicode(stringOne) == stringTwo The result is false. What function should I use, to duplicate the effect of the "u" prefix ? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listi
