When addressing these not-so-novel questions, one more time as the editors of this issue, we were well aware of the futility of seeking any absolute answers that can be applied to all contexts -even though, without doubt, it would have been a wonderful relief to have them. Instead, our call for different narrations sought to explore how the meaning of Europe is, and has always been, shaped by different contextual concerns. Rather than searching for a definition of Europeanness, we wanted to pursue how its different definitions were being mobilised by different narrators, according to their varying needs, and what power relationships these different narrations could reveal to us.}, month = {6}, pages = {1-5}, issn = {1744-6716}, publisher={University of Westminster Press}, journal = {Westminster Papers in Communication and Culture} }
