Economic, Political and Social Identity in the European Union Professor John Wilton Lecture 3 Social Constructivism and an E.U. identity

Lecture 3 Two perspectives about the way in which identity is produced are: ESSENTIALIST CONSTRUCTIVIST

Lecture 3 1. ESSENTIALISM - an approach that looks for the ‘essence’ or ‘true core’ of objects, values, identities and cultures

Lecture 3 2. CONSTRUCTIVISM - identities not ‘fixed’ or static, but instead should be understood as a process of ‘becoming’ within which they are continually mediated and influenced by other factors, built up – for example, socially – or constructed

Lecture 3 -citizen identity is ‘constructed’ every day by the social determinants of our actions -Constructivism is based upon the concept of IDEATIONAL SOCIALISATION

Lecture 3 Constructivists hold the view that the ‘building blocks’ of international reality are IDEATIONAL, as well as material - in other words, ideas, as much as experience and actuality, shape international reality (- the ideas, beliefs, norms and values of elites, as much as the actuality and experiences of individual citizens, shape and form the reality of everyday life)

Lecture 3 - Constructivists hold the view that the ‘building blocks’ of international reality are IDEATIONAL, as well as material - in other words, ideas, as much as experience and actuality, shape international reality (- the ideas, beliefs, norms and values of elites, as much as the actuality and experiences of individual citizens, shape and form the reality of everyday life)

Lecture 3 E.U social and cultural policies PLUS economic growth and stability (material interests) ‘citizen interest’ + E.U. cultural and social images and institutions = socially constructed E.U. identity
