European Cultural Identity
No. 40 NOVEMBER 2013
The history of Europe is not linear, nor is its possible identity. Between contradictions and conflicts, doubts and collapses, concerns and uncertainties, achievements and discoveries, a certain transcendent need is felt by societies that have moved in two directions: on the one hand, an increase in secularism, especially as science and technology provide more complete knowledge of the Universe and the world, thus reducing the role of explanations that attributed many phenomena considered inexplicable to the divine and, on the other, in the increase in the proportion of collective and individual egos.
