Cultural Values of Europe

"What is the cultural identity of Europe? Are there specifically European values? Questions such as these are at the centre of a considerable number of political and scholarly debates in contemporary Europe. In this international best-seller, a group of acclaimed historians, sociologists and philosophers explore the value traditions of Europe to produce a thought-provoking image of contemporary European self-understanding. The volume combines two approaches, looking both at specific cultural traditions (for example, 'Athens and Jerusalem') and at specific values (for example, 'freedom', 'rationality')." "The Cultural Values of Europe will be required reading for anyone hoping to understand the common cultural ground in Europe."--BOOK JACKET.
