National Identity in Europe

Respect of National Identity

Content about National Identity from the publication “The ABC of European Union law” (2010, European Union) by Klaus-Dieter Borchardt.

The national identities of the Member States are respected. The idea is not for the Member States to be ‘dissolved’ into the EU, but rather for them to contribute their own particular qualities. It is precisely this variety of national characteristics and identities that lends the EU its moral authority, which in turn is used for the benefit of the EU as a whole.
