SoSe 13: Territorial identities in an integrating Europe
Theresa Kuhn-Lancee
Kommentar
In the wake of globalization and European integration, questions of collective identity have taken centre stage. Academics and policy makers alike argue that a common European identity is a necessary condition for the success of the European integration project. However, as it has become clear in the current economic crisis, national interests still prevail and strongly influence political decision-making. At the same time, we also observe the (re-)emergence of subnational identities, as it is the case in Catalonia and Scotland.
After discussing the controversial concept of collective identity, we look at how subnational, national and European identities can go together or compete with each other. We then focus on how collective identities can be constructed by political authorities, and how citizens express their identities in daily life. Finally, we discuss how territorial identities influence European and national politics.
