Summary/Abstract: The basic idea of the essay is that today Europe – although it populates itself with prospective minorities (the migrants) – is fully unable to face up to the minorityproblem. In Western Europe, the assimilation is today systematically confused with integration, but this “integration” could no longer transform itself in a factual basis of social cohesion. There is a fundamental difference between the – substantially always individualistic – assimilation (i.e. the full acquisition of the majority language and culture) and the – always communitarian – integration, based on multilingualism and multiple identities.
