Abstract

Now, as now, the Europe project no longer seems to be able to guarantee and control the process of integration or to ensure the expansion of individual and collective life chances in and out of the European space. We are in the midst of a profound crisis, which is emerging social and political divisions that defy basic constitutional principles and values, endangering cohesion and social integration. This volume intends to contribute to the scientific and public debate on the challenges of Europe, focusing on four key aspects of understanding the ongoing social changes: solidarity, identity, citizenship and democracy. Using a multidisciplinary approach, it highlights the contradictions inherent in the project so far achieved, analyzing the empirical phenomena that most seem to put in crisis the future of Europe: international migrations, insecurity linked to Loss of social rights, the emergence of new forms of belonging and cultural identities, of populist, new nationalisms and, at the same time, transnational social movements that urgently pose the democratic issue. A diagnosis of the social change in progress emerges, which helps to understand the obstacles to the continuation of the European project and the margins of action to relaunct it on new bases.
