New book:

Johan Fornäs:/ Signifying Europe/
Bristol: Intellect Press
November 2011
384 pages (including some 60 illustrations in colour)

This book provides a systematic overview of the wide range of symbols used to represent Europe and Europeanness, both by the political elite and the broader public. Through a critical interpretation of the meanings of the various symbols - and their often contradictory or ambiguous dimensions - it uncovers how Europe currently identifies itself and is identified by others outside its borders. While the focus is on the European Union's symbols, those symbols are also interpreted in relation to other symbols of Europe.
