As a consequence of various rounds of EU enlargements, the degree
of cultural diversity in Europe has intensified - a phenomenon
which is increasingly perceived as problematic by many EU citizens.
This fascinating book not only empirically explores the current
state of the identity and the legitimacy of the EU as viewed by its
citizens, but also evaluates their attitudes towards it. The expert
contributors show that the development of a European identity and a
common European culture is a prerequisite for European integration;
that European identity and a common political culture will not
develop rapidly but emerge slowly, and that the beginnings of a
European identity and a common European culture are currently
emerging. The roles of civil society organizations and political
parties are examined within this context, and an explanatory model
with subjective predictors of the attitudes towards the EU is
tested. The empirical analysis is underpinned by a theoretical
framework incorporating operational definitions and conceptual
discussion of legitimacy and identity. This intriguing and
thought-provoking book will be of great interest to academics,
researchers and students focusing on political science and
international relations.
