Abstract:
This article analyses certain aspects regarding the formation of European identity and the
theoretical conceptualization of this process. It delves into the cultural, political, and historical
dimensions in approaching this phenomenon, as well as certain aspects pertaining to the methodology
of researching national and European identity, and the dialectical interaction between
these two identity dimensions. It is noted in this context that determining and implementing the
model of European identity represents one of the primary tasks in the development of the European
Union. The authors highlight the multitude of historical, political, social, and normative
paradigms concerning this phenomenon. From this perspective, the authors demonstrate the necessity
of researching the object of study through the lens of various historical contexts, theoretical
perspectives, and political realities, which requires an interdisciplinary and multiaspectual
approach.
