Summary/Abstract: The article is a review essay touching upon the problems of European integration and identity as well as the nation of Europeans. It was written as a response to the book edited by Włodzimierz Wesołowski and Kazimierz M. Słomczyński Tożsamość, zaufanie, integracja. Polska i Europa [Identity, Trust, Integration. Poland and Europe]. We believe that the Authors undertake to discuss important issues, but without broader theoretical reflection, which makes them focus on marginal problems. They thereby leave certain key questions unanswered, regarding the chances for a European nation to emerge, the meaning of the process of integration, the difference in the way in which it is perceived by various European nations and its relation to its national equivalents. While reading this book, we were confirmed in the belief that there is still no idea of how a further integration would look like and whether or how to shape the European identity.
