THE DYNAMIC EUROPEAN IDENTITY
Identity is an abstract concept. It is closely related to individual characteristics. Firstly, the concept of identity was exclusively related to human beings. Nowadays, this concept is used to distinguish human beings, social groups or political structures from each-other. This article aims to offer a general view on European identity, the way on how this concept is raised up. Some of the efforts on having an European identity are reflected through the empirical and suspicious view from the authors. In addition, this paper addresses some of the European Union identity consequences under the author’s view and collective European identity. In the last part are given the conclusions and some recommendations in order to really feel and be part of European identity.
