摘要：The concepts of imaginary in general and of political imaginary in particular are very difficult to circumscribe to a certain domain. They pertain to a multidisciplinary range of sciences,hence the difficulty to offer a single definition for them or at least a comprehensive one. It is nevertheless undeniable,as the present paper attempts to demonstrate that there is a tight and indestructible connection between the political identity of a community and the political imaginary it is haunted by. Starting from these premises,the paper discusses the issue of a common European identity,against the background of a continent torn by an unprecedented economic and political crisis whose role seems to be to remind the European elites that the answer is to be found in the cultural field.
