Abstract

<p>Kwestia tożsamości kulturowo-cywilizacyjnej Unii Europejskiej staje się problemem dyskusyjnym, zwłaszcza w kontekście procesu rozszerzenia tej struktury. Zjawisko to analizowane jest często w kontekście rozwoju integracji i konieczności poszukiwania nowej tożsamości europejskiej. Występują też obawy, czy w procesie integracji nie dojdzie do osłabienia, a nawet zatracenia tożsamości narodowych. Wydaje się, że w tym kontekście problem integracji Turcji z Unią Europejską będzie największym wyzwaniem. Nawet jeśli państwo to spełni wszystkie merytoryczne kryteria członkostwa, nie zmieni to faktu, iż należy ono do odmiennego kręgu kulturowo-cywilizacyjnego. Nasuwa się więc pytanie, jaki będzie wkład muzułmańskiej Turcji w kreowanie wspólnej europejskiej tożsamości? Celem niniejszego opracowania jest przedstawienie koncepcji tożsamości europejskiej w obliczu perspektywy rozszerzenia o Turcję. Chcemy również w tym kontekście uwzględnić analizę stosunku społeczeństwa Turcji do kwestii integracji europejskiej.</p>

Summary

THE CONCEPT OF THE EUROPEAN IDENTITY

The degree to which a European identity can be said to exist or to be emerging is a problem of considerable importance, from both a policy-making perspective. A European Identity?Europeanization and the Evolution of Nation-State Identities, [in:] Europeanization and Domestic Change: Transforming Europe, ed. The Ottoman conquests defined the Islamic cultural and religious circles in Europe These religious divisions, the existence of great European empires, changes to their borders, the formation of new states, wars, social, economic and political developments, were all factors that contributed to the shaping and reshaping of European identities. The growing uncontrollable migration and human trade imported many legal, social and civilization problems into EU states.[22] There is a sort of gap around each Islamic community as compared to the rest of the society This gap often turns into an internal and external border at Ibidem. Their ethnic and national identities usually override this common identity.[25]
