Lecture
SoSe 13: Cultural Differences and Similarities between the Member States of the European Union
Jürgen Gerhards
Comments
What are the major cultural differences between the Member States of the European Union? How can one explain these differences? Are the cultural differences diminishing so that one can speak of a unified European culture? These are the three systematic research questions which underlie the structure of the lecture.
As culture exists of different dimensions, the course will apply these questions to the different dimensions of culture. The lecture is structured in seven parts.
1. The different meanings of the term culture
2. The language constellation of the European Union and how it has evolved
3. Religion in Europe and the process of secularization
4. Ethnic Minorities in Europe
5. From materialistic to post-materialistic values
6. Europe in the context of a world culture
7. Collective identity and collective memories
8. Class differences in life style and cultural consumption
