Besides the United Nations, the European Union is the most exciting political experiment started in the twentieth century in the domain of inter-state affairs. Yet its survival is uncertain unless the peoples of the member states develop an inclusive socio-territorial allegiance going beyond national loyalties. This book pursues a realistic account of whether and how a European identity may form, based on constructivist theories and supported with opinion survey results, expert ratings, and party manifesto analysis.
