In this lecture I aim at investigating European integration as a process of rising transnational social integration between the citizens from European Union member states. I will start with an outline of the major fields of Europe’s systemic integration regarding economics and (social) policy. The main part of the lecture is about different dimensions of integration of people in Europe: European identity and trust, solidarity, transnational mobility, European citizenship, and the emergence of a European public sphere. The lecture will be held in English.
