History, Memory, and Trans-European Identity : Unifying Divisions

Omtale

This book questions the presupposition voiced by many historians and political scientists that political experiences in Europe continue to be interpreted in terms of national history, and that a European community of remembrance still does not exist. Through the detailed analysis of both the national and the supranational level, it analyses the emergence of a sense of a shared European past that has started to transcend national forms of memory.
