Constructing “Europe” and spread of European values

Abstract

This book concentrates the efforts of researchers from Lithuania, Poland, Ukraine, and their neighbours. The research object is also dictated by the region – Lithuanian, Polish, Ukrainian and Russian discourses of “Europe”. Researchers published here systematically examine the specifics of construction and spread of what is called “Europe” in this region, and in a broader geographical context. The total scope of this book looks at the phenomenon of constructing “Europe” through different lenses and makes a comparison of particular nations and particular governmental levels.
