The European Union plays an increasingly central role in global
relations from migration to trade to institutional financial
solvency. The formation and continuation of these relations - their
narratives and discourses - are rooted in social, political, and
economic historical relations emerging at the founding of European
states and then substantially augmented in the Post-WWII era. Any
rethinking of our European narratives requires a contextualized
analysis of the formation of hegemonic discourses. The book
contributes to the ongoing process of "rethinking" the European
project, identity, and institutions, brought about by the end of
the Cold war and the current economic and political crisis.
Starting from the principle that the present European crisis goes
hand in hand with the crisis of its hegemonic discourse, the aim of
the volume is to rescue the complexity, the richness, the ambiguity
of the discourses on Europe as opposed to the present
simplification. The multidisciplinary approach and the long-term
perspective permits illuminating scope over multiple discourses,
historical periods, and different "languages", including that of
the European institutions. This text will be of key interest to
scholars and students of European Union politics, European
integration, European History, and more broadly international
relations.
