Resumo(s)
The purpose of this article is the debate around the European
identity. Two types of political identification are taken into account,
sustaining the idea of the nation from a cultural and ethnic point of
view or from a civic and political perspective. From here, the discussion will center on the possibility of a European identity and to what
extent that identity will be shared by citizens from different nationalities. As will be demonstrated, communication plays a crucial role: as
a form of participating and asserting the difference, and associating
the universalism of the normative principles to the particularism of the
concrete forms of identification. Finally, we suggest the conception
of a European identity that reflects, simultaneously, a historical and
cultural ballast in which people can trust, and on its own civic culture
that, respecting the identities recognizes sensibilities, interests, the
arguments.
