The course focuses on the phenomenon of European unifications and the formation of political coalitions and clusters in a global context. It shows the inner logic of processes and asks what the project of the European unification was reacting to, what response it had and what objections it was facing to. The course notes that for social and cultural anthropology, Europe and the European Union are difficult to grasp and provide alternative answers why it is so. The course teaches students about texts on the anthropology of Europe and the European Union and instructs how to work with them.
