Book Description
The word `Europe' is seen and heard constantly, in newspapers, on television and children are taught about it in school. But what does it really mean to us? Does it have the same meaning for everyone? How does it affect our everyday lives? Do we consider ourselves to be Europeans and what does that mean in practice? This book concentrates on aspects of European cultural diversity. The four essays included deal with language, education, the mass media and everyday culture. The issues under discussion are those that strongly influence the way in which we define our common, everyday identity. They are also issues which determine our access to opportunities of different kinds. The book is designed to enable readers to identify those factors which make them and their own environment unique and to place themselves within the context of everyday Europe.

Book Description
Is it possible to create a collective European identity? In this volume, leading scholars assess the link between collective identity construction in Europe and the multiple memory discourses that intervene in this construction process. The authors believe that the exposure of national collective memories to an enlarging communicative space within Europe affects the ways in which national memories are framed. Through this perspective, several case studies of East and West European memory discourses are presented. The first part of the volume elaborates how collective memory can be identified in the new Europe. The second part presents case studies on national memories and related collective identities in respect of European integration and its extension to the East. This timely work is the first to investigate collective identity construction on a pan-European scale and will be of interest to academics and postgraduate students of political sociology and European studies.

Book Description
Cultural identity is a key area of debate in contemporary Europe. Despite widespread use of the past in the construction of ethnic, national and European identity, theories of cultural identity have been neglected in archaeology. Focusing on the interrelationships between concepts of cultural identity today and the interpretation of past cultural groups, Cultural Identity and Archaeology offers proactive archaeological perspectives in the debate surrounding European identities. This fascinating and thought-provoking book covers three key areas. It considers how material remains are used in the interpretation of cultural identities, for example 'pan-Celtic culture' and 'Bronze Age Europe'. Finally, it looks at archaeological evidence for the construction of cultural identities in the European past. The authors are critical of monolithic constructions of Europe, and also of the ethnic and national groups within it. in place of such exclusive cultural, political and territorial entities the book argues for a consideration of the diverse, hybrid and multiple nature of European cultural identities.

Book Description
LE PRESENT TRAVAIL A POUR BUT DE MONTRER, A TRAVERS UNE ANALYSE DES DEBATS SUR L'“EXCEPTION CULTURELLE” LORS DES NEGOCIATIONS DU GATT, QUE L'IDENTITE CULTURELLE EUROPEENNE SE COMPOSE D'ELEMENTS HETEROGENES ET QU'ELLE S'APPUIE EFFECTIVEMENT SUR CETTE DIVERSITE THEORIQUEMENT, LE TERME “IDENTITE COLLECTIVE”, PRESUPPOSE UNE DIVISION CONCEPTUELLE ENTRE 'NOUS' ET LES 'AUTRES' ET DES FRONTIERES, GEOGRAPHIQUES OU CULTURELLES, REVELATRICES DE LA LOGIQUE D'INCLUSION ET D'EXCLUSION. AINSI, L'INVENTION DE L'ETAT/NATION MODERNE FAIT-ELLE NAITRE DANS SON SEIN NON SEULEMENT LES CITOYENS NATIONAUX, MAIS AUSSI LES ETRANGERS. EN EUROPE, LES FRONTIERES S'IMPOSENT ENTRE L'EST ET L'OUEST AINSI QU'ENTRE L'EUROPE EST LES AUTRES CONTINENTS. A L'INTERIEUR DE SES FRONTIERES L'UE VEUT INSTAURER LE MAXIMUM D'HOMOGENEITE EN FAISANT APPEL A LA CONTINUITE DE L'HISTOIRE EUROPEENNE ET AUX RACINES COMMUNES DE SA CIVILISATION. SOUS CET ANGLE, NOUS DECOUVRONS QUE LA CONSTRUCTION EUROPEENNE EST A LA FOIS L'AFFIRMATION D'UNE IDENTITE ET LA QUETE DE CELLE-CI. SI LE CHAMPS AUDIOVISUEL EST PRIVILEGIE DANS CETTE THESE, C'EST PARCE QUE LA QUESTION EUROPEENNE ACTUELLE EST MULTIDIMENSIONNELLE ET QU'IL EST REPRESENTATIF DU CROISEMENT DES INTERETS POLITIQUE, ECONOMIQUE ET CULTUREL. LA LUTTE EUROPEENNE CONTRE LA CONCEPTION DE LA CULTURE COMME UNE MARCHANDISE MET EN LUMIERE LES ENJEUX DE L'EUROPE. EN FAIT, LE CHOIX EUROPEEN EN LA MATIERE NE S'OPERE PAS ENTRE LE GLOBAL ET LE NATIONAL, NI ENTRE L'UNIVERSEL ET LE PARTICULIER, MAIS ENTRE L'AMERICANISATION CULTURELLE ET LA DIVERSITE CULTURELLE. UNE DES RAISONS POUR LESQUELLESLES ANCIENNES TENTATIVES D'UNIFICATION EUROPEENNE AVAIENT ECHOUE, C'EST QU'ELLES VOULAIENT INSTAURER L'UNIVERSALISME CULTUREL AFIN D'ACCOMPLIR L'UNIVERSALISME POLITIQUE. OR, L'HISTOIRE NOUS MONTRE QUE SI UNE CULTURE FLEURIT, C'EST GRACE AUX APPORTS DES AUTRES, DES “ HERETIQUES ”. DE CE CONSTAT, ON PEUT CONCLURE QUE LA RECONNAISSANCE DES DIVERSITES CULTURELLES EST LE FONDEMENT MEME DE L'EUROPE.
