The word 'Europe' is seen and heard constantly, in newspapers and on television and our children are taught about it in school. But what does Europe really mean to us? Does it have the same meaning for everyone? How does it affect our everyday lives? Do we consider ourselves to be Europeans and what does that mean in practice? This book concentrates on aspects of European cultural diversity. The four essays included deal with language, education, the mass media and everyday culture. The issues under discussion are those that strongly influence the way in which we define our common, everyday identity. They are also issues which determine our access to opportunities of different kinds. Three of the essays have been written from a German perspective, the fourth is by an English author, but all of them encompass a Europe-wide view of their subject. This book will help readers to place themselves within the context of everyday Europe and to identify those factors which make them and their own environment unique.
