eng Europe and Culture: Anthropological Perspectives of the Process of European Integration After the fall of the Iron Curtain a new concept of Europe as a socially relevant object of study emerged in social sciences challenging the model of Europe as historical entity, or a philosophical or literary concept. This concept provoked an upsurge of interest in the study of European identity among anthropologists (Boissevain 1975; Goddard, Llobera and Shore 1994; Shore 2000; Barrera-González 2005, etc.) who began to study how Europeanness is constructed and articulated both by the architects of the EU themselves, and at grass root levels (e.g. Shore and Black 1996). Drawing on notions of European culture and identity, this text examines the image of Europe/the EU in post-communist Europe, particularly in the Czech Republic, from two different perspectives. First, how the institutionalization of Europe as a cultural idea is viewed by some of the Czech political commentators, and second, from an ethnographically grounded anthropological perspective, focusing on how and at what levels a Czech local community identifies with Europe and the EU. Drawing on a broad range of data, the text attempts to provide new insights into the pitfalls of collective European identity in the making, with the emphasis on its cultural dimension in the post-communist Czech Republic.
