În fiecare an, de Ziua Europei – 9 mai sărbătorim pacea și unitatea în Europa. Data marchează ziua istorică în care a fost pronunțată declarația Schuman. Pentru a marca Ziua Europei, instituțiile Uniunii Europene își deschid porțile pentru public la începutul lunii mai, la Bruxelles și la Strasbourg. Birourile locale ale Uniunii Europene din Europa și din întreaga lume organizează diverse activități și evenimente, pentru toate vârstele.
În fiecare an, mii de cetățeni participă la vizite, dezbateri, concerte și alte evenimente, pentru a sărbători Ziua Europei și pentru a sensibiliza opinia publică în legătură cu Uuniunea Europeană.
De la începutul crizei provocate de pandemia de COVID-19, Uniunea Europeană îi invită pe cetățenii din Uniune și din întreaga lume să descopere Europa în condiții de siguranță și, în cea mai mare parte, virtual: evenimente la fața locului sau în format hibrid și vizite organizate în măsura în care condițiile sanitare permit acest lucru.
Cu prilejul Zilei Europei, Biblioteca Centrală a BM „B.P. Hasdeu”, vă invită să urmăriți expoziția virtuală de carte, din colecția Carte în limba engleză:

Verdun Amy. The European Union in the wake of Eastern enlargement – Institutional and policy-making challenges / Amy Verdun, Osvaldo Croci – New York: Ed. Manchester University Press; 1st edition 2005 – 264 p.
This book, newly available in paperback, deals with the theoretical, conceptual and historical processes that led to European Union enlargement. It discusses the effects of enlargement on selected European Union policies (agriculture, single market, foreign, security and defence policy, immigration) and looks at the effect of the institutional reforms that were made at Amsterdam and Nice, as well as considering the significance of the debates on the Constitution. It contains chapters by leading European scholars from both sides of the Atlantic. The chapters report current research and employ a variety of methodological and theoretical perspectives. This book is unique in looking at the issues that the European Union faces in the aftermath of Eastern enlargement.
Berezin Mabel. Europe without borders / Mabel Berezin, Martin Schain – Baltimore, Maryland: Ed. JHUP; First Edition 2004 – 336 p.
The creation of the European Union in 1992 reflected new economic, political, and cultural realities on the continent. The dissolution of national borders and the easing of transit restrictions on people and goods with Europe, have contributed to a radical rethinking of such basic concepts as national sovereignty and citizenship. In Europe without Borders, Mabel Berezin and Martin Schain bring together leading experts from the fields sociology, political science, geography, psychology, and anthropology to examine the intersection of identity and territory in the new Europe.
