On 20 June 2013, Notre Europe – Jacques Delors Institute organised in Paris and in cooperation with EuroCité and Europartenaires the third seminar of a whole cycle about the European public space “Heading towards the European elections” around the topic “Europe: symbols and memory(ies)”.
Virginie Timmerman, research assistant at Notre Europe – Jacques Delors Institute, summarise this seminar around three main elements:
- The EU in search of symbols and a single memory
- European symbols of today and tomorrow
- The absence of symbolism in a peaceful and depoliticised Europe
