Visions and Revisions of Europe offers a multidisciplinary debate on the various political, social, and cultural issues that are at the heart of contemporary European discourse, with a focus on the relations between the so-called “New” and “Old” Europe. A range of possible scenarios for the future of the EU, as well as a discussion of the factors affecting current crises are at the forefront of the debate, which lead the reader to reflect upon often overlooked aspects of European integration, such as Germany’s hegemonic role in the Union, or historical narratives and myths that need to be deconstructed and critically analysed. Contemporary populist movements also play a key role, as do the often difficult processes of migration and EU mobility, which reveal the tensions, fears, and lines of exclusion in contemporary European societies. Finally, the role of values – namely an adherence to human rights and responsibility over the global social order – which in the 1970s was a cornerstone of EU discursive action and identity building, serves as a lasting point of reflection on the uncertain future of the EU’s axio-normative direction(s).

The first years of the 90s have witnessed thorough political and economic changes in northern Europe. The long period of strong political separation between east and west and the less strong economic separation between the northern and southern sides of the Baltic Sea seemed to be replaced by far-reaching integration. There is no doubt that further integration will have additional impacts on the regional patterns in northern Europe. The amplitude and composition of these changes are difficult to project. In this volume a number of scholars in regional science and related disciplines (geography, economics, environmental and political sciences, planning) have brought together important material on the current processes that reshapes northern Europe. Visions andstrategies on local, national and supranational levels are penetrated in depth. A "mosaic" vision of the regional development pattern emerges highlighting the importance of cooperative and competitive strategies affecting the local conditions of European regions.

This book, a collection of essays in English dealing with women in Italian culture, consists of two sections reflecting a variety of themes and intellectual and political interests. The first section, "Women and the Male Gaze: The Literary and Artistic Heritage", analyses ways in which women were constructed by men through a variety of literary and other discourses, from the Divine Comedy to the twentieth century. The second section, "Tradition and Transformation: Women in Society and the Movement towards Liberation", focuses on definitions by women themselves on their cultural and social identity, and the gradual and at times contradictory evolution of these definitions - changes in women's attitudes towards marriage and the family, proposed reforms to the laws on domestic and sexual violence, and lullabies in Northern and Central Italy as an expression of women's frustration and anger at their position.

At one time the American Dream was the ideal and envy of the world. But today, at the dawn of the new Millennium, Europe is pointing a new way to the future. In this major new book, best-selling author Jeremy Rifkin argues that Europe has a vision of its own and is overtaking America as the world’s next superpower. The American Dream was based on economic growth, personal wealth and independence. It was synonymous with love of country and patriotism, frontier mentality and the unbridled exercise of power. Yet what were once considered prime virtues - cherished and idealised not only in America but throughout the world - are increasingly seen by many as drawbacks and even impediments. But while the American Dream tires and languishes in the past, a new European Dream is being born. Today we see a new set of values emerging which are focused on sustainable development, quality of life and multilateralism. More cosmopolitan and less concerned with the brute exercise of power, the European Dream is better positioned to accommodate the many forces that are propelling us into a more interconnected and interdependent world. Where does Britain fit into this story? The British find themselves betwixt and between a fading American Dream and a newly emerging European Dream which is gaining the upper hand in our contemporary global age. Rifkin argues that Britain is uniquely positioned to play a bridge role between Europe and America and has the potential to help create a synergy between the two superpowers of the 21st century. But in order to exercise any real influence in world affairs, Britain must choose to be part of a larger political entity. In a globally connected world, no people can exist any longer as an island unto themselves. The only question for Britain is whether it will make its home with America or with Europe.

Major international figures discuss the society and culture of a changing continent. One kind of Europe - the Europe of politics and economics - is changing fast. But left out of this equation is an aspect which goes to the very heart and mind of our times. This is the cultural question of Europe's vision of itself, and of the wider world beyond its frontiers. Richard Kearney's interviews with artists, historians and philosophers discuss the exciting network of images, interpretations and directions for an understanding of the multi-cultural European ideal.

Seminar paper from the year 2018 in the subject Cultural Studies - European Studies, grade: 2,3, http://www.uni-jena.de/, course: BA.IWK.P2, “Kulturspezifisches Wissen und Handeln Seminar Zielkultur” “Perspectives on Europe“(146262), language: English, abstract: The European Union is faced with interlinked challenges these days, a financial and social crisis together with an economic and political crisis. Likewise, there is a revive of an authoritarian Russia, a return of the `German problem` in form of a European wide austerity policy, the rise of secessionist movements in Scotland, Catalonia, and other regions, a European refugee crisis, the growing of sceptical voices against the European Union all over Europe and the insecurity that comes with the `Brexit`. Thus, the question arises how to overcome the current weakness, this crisis of confidence within the European system. It is widely discussed how the future Europe will look like and what needs to change. It is beyond dispute that something needs to Changes in order to save the European community. The answer could be a loose confederation or a full political integration, a “United States of Europe” with a centralized Power. In this paper, the federal model of the United States of Europe will be discussed, showing of the difficult situation in Europe nowadays and one out of many solutions for the European future. The idea of a federal Europe is not new and returned in the last few years and was widely discussed in politics, media and the public discussion. The further European integration should, referring to most spokesman, be done as a federal state following the model of the United States of America. It is a hypothetical model which cannot be implemented in short time and should be handled as a long-term project. Treaty changes, or even the approach of a constitution, are difficult and need to be well prepared in long political debates and votes. There are some main advocators of the model, especially in politics, to whom I will mainly refer to and create a comprising insight in this visionary concept. The current crisis reflects that something needs to be changed in the system to save Europe and not to lose all the things that have been achieved past years. The subject is not fully researched, reflecting the idea with different manifestations and variations. It is uncertain whether it will ever take place in Europe, and how exactly it would look like. For further european development the final goal of European Unification needs to be defined.
