From the illustrated intelectual theorization in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, the idea of Europe has assumed the meaning of a singular and differentiated European civilization, a notion linked to projects of continental peace that had to face the civilizational crisis with the outbreak of two world wars. This paper analyzes the dominant narrative of the idea of Europe as a discourse of power in the contemporary era and its concretion into the first European construction initiated with the Schuman Declaration on April 9, 1950.

Palavras-chave : Europe; European identity; European civilization; European construction; European Union.
