Peoples of Europe: Varieties of Contemporary European Cultures


The main objective of the course is to acquaint students with the similarities and differences of contemporary European civil societies and to examine the role of cultural, social and political factors in the processes of European integration. Stress will be laid on the description and interpretation of presently existing varieties of European civil societies, but the course will also help the students to understand the main historical roots of European cultural plurality, i.e. the political, economic and cultural processes that engendered this plurality. In the course Europe is conceived in traditional geographic terms, i.e. it includes not only countries of the European Union, but also countries of Eastern Europe as well as of Eastern Central Europe and of the Balkans.
