| Summary: | The Europe we know today is the summing or why not, the result of long and complex historical events, not
only geographically and ethnically, but also from a cultural, religious, social and political point of view. As noticed
from ancient times, the old continent has followed its own destiny, generating a series of cultures which through
their similarity, mutual interactions and achievements unify and distinguish this civilization. There have been a
lot of talks about the role of culture in Europe, however a profound analysis of its position in the current historical
phase is necessary. In this respect, the European Union plays a major role in protecting cultural values, especially
in recent times. Therefore, the citizens of the Member States have the responsibility to actively engage in the
preservation, maintenance and valorization of the European cultural heritage, which represents our common
heritage. In view of the fact that culture, namely the protection of European cultural heritage has become one
of the main objectives of the European Union, the present study aims to analyze and illustrate the important
steps taken by the Union, following the adoption of the Treaty of Maastricht and later through the reform of the
Lisbon Treaty. |
