Summary/Abstract: The paper refers to the preliminary outcomes of the EC 5th FP project CULTPAT (Cultural Patterns of the European Enlargement Process). The overarching objective of the research was defined as an attempt to reconstruct those cultural patterns that, in the new political surroundings, frame the European enlargement process and thus influence the redefinition of the EU as well. The EU enlargement process intensifies the redefinition of national and regional identities as well as of European identities from the perspective of both the European institutions and the countries involved.
