Presented By: Osher Lifelong Learning Institute (50+)
The Limits and Possibilities of Transnational European Identities
OLLI at U-M (50+)
Speaker: Dario Gaggio, Associate Professor of History, U-M
Has Europe's economic and political integration created a transnational European identity? To what extent is such identity compatible with others, such as national belonging, religious affiliations or ethnic ties? This lecture will address these questions by reviewing historical and current evidence and assessing the cultural and emotional dimensions of European integration.
The First 2012-2013 Thursday Morning Lecture Series, "Europe in Crisis: Issues Behind the Headlines", September 13 – October 24, will help us think about and make sense of the E.U.'s present political, social, and economic challenges in the current crisis.
Next Thursday lecture series (Nov-Dec): "The Supreme Court: Impact of Current Decisions on our Society"
