Chapter 1 Europe Faces Europe: An Introduction Johan Fornäs he European Commission (EC) has campaigned for a ‘new narrative for Europe’ to breathe new life into the European spirit. In March 2014, its cultural committee report Temphasized the ‘shared values of peace, freedom, democracy and rule of law’ but also the role of culture as ‘a major source of nourishment and supply for Europe’s social and political body’. Indeed, cultural aspects linked to symbols and narratives seem increasingly central to Europe’s future prospects, functioning as a means of identification and interaction between the severed halves of the continent. Top European institutions, often in grand self-congratulatory terms, look for ways to use such aspects as strategic tools to secure popular support. This is done on several different levels, including, for instance, both the European Union (EU) and the much larger Council of Europe (CoE). However, redefining Europe is not just a top-down task for dominant institutions in Brussels. All over the continent, other actors have also for a long time been engaged in unfolding narrations that rework conventional traditions and thus redefine European identities, as critical movements and grass-roots debates either propel or challenge European interactions, adding new dimensions that serve to undermine or revitalize dominant discourses. Since 1989, some of renegotiations of identity have particularly centred on the post- Communist borderlands of Eastern Europe. While this integration process has been a major concern for many on all levels and in all regions, little attention has so far been given to how East European voices themselves relate to Europe as a dynamic project. How is Europe identified in narratives from its eastern half? This is thus the core question asked in this volume based on the multidisciplinary research project ‘Narratives of Europe’.1 The book chapters’ systematic in-depth studies of selected mediated discourses investigate how Europe faces Europe in a range of cultural fields, mapping, comparing and interpreting narratives circulating in phenomenological philosophy, international geopolitics, news journalism, social movements, visual art and popular music. Narratives are powerful tools for shaping formations of identity, as they seek in various discourse fields to identify Europe’s past, present and future. Such narratives are sometimes echoed in European studies but rarely closely investigated in terms of their main constituents and forms, or of the meanings and identities they give to Europe. Many previous studies of Europe have dealt with the political or economic dimensions of its history. Here focusing on cultural and narrative dimensions casts new light on the intricate processes that indicate in which directions European mentalities and structures of feeling are moving, and thus what Europe may become tomorrow. Europe Faces Europe This introductory chapter will first situate the issue of European narratives in relationo t a series of recent and current transitions and then problematize the often assumed East–West divide. Next, theories of narrative identification are presented, leading to the suggestion of a methodological model for studying such narratives from a critical-hermeneutic perspective. Finally, some results of the six case studies will be summarized, indicating possible comparisons across cultural genres and fields as well as between different regions within Eastern Europe. The reading of this final part of the introduction can therefore also be postponed until after reading the empirical chapters. Narratives of Europe People living in as well as outside Europe develop ways to identify it in thought and (inter-) action, giving it a range of meanings that link it to a variable set of characteristic traits or values. Europeanness is then always intertwined with other identities, including those involving nationality, ethnicity, class, age, generation, gender, sexuality, religion and political affiliation. Identities are relationally constructed through discourses that construct differences to ‘others’, in Europe’s case notably Islam, Asia, Africa and the US, even though they in some respects actually may also be regarded as integrated within that same Europe, for instance through Muslim immigrants or the strong US American influences on academia and popular culture. Europe has no fixed essence or existence. It is always in a process of becoming: a Europe- in-process, always contested and always in a crisis. This process has – from varying positions and in shifting terms – been interpreted by a range of social theorists. Jürgen Habermas has, for instance, argued for new forms of interlinked public spheres that could serve as infrastructures for Europeans to communicate on shared issues and be ‘united in diversity’ (the European motto): with plurality not as a barrier but as a resource for unification.2 Jacques Derrida has insisted on the acknowledgement of difference and alterity for a ‘Europe still to become’.3 Zygmunt Bauman likewise regards Europe as an unfinished adventure, defined by its lack of fixed identity and yearning for transgression.4 Europe’s rich history of superimposed differences has, Étienne Balibar argues, lent it a particular capacity to act ‘as the interpreter of the world, translating languages and cultures in all directions’.5 ‘The future of Europe’ is seen by Paul Ricoeur ‘in terms of imagination’, outlining a series of models for a ‘post-national state’ to combine identity and alterity at different levels: asking for a ‘translation ethos’ of hospitality that could mediate between different cultures, and where people
