Résumé des résultats (Abstract) (Anglais)

The comparative study, including two EU members, one associated and several applicant countries, completed by cross-country problem-oriented case studies, is based on a qualitative, trans-disciplinary social science approach, combining analytical skills from the fields of contemporary anthropology, political science and history of ideas. The research project aims to reconstruct the cultural patterns of identity constructions on a local/regional, national and European level since '1989/90', used as frames for political orientation by various actors of the enlargement process. Special attention is drawn to these fields of political discourse and policy making, which are perceived through conflicting representations on the said levels and as a potential danger posed by or to the enlargement process.
