Summary: | The EU construction began following the logic of economics, which in time it has created
dysfunctions that seem to accentuate and create a quasi-general skepticism. This paper aims at
analyzing the union construction and reconstruction on other conceptual premises, placing culture at
the forefront of the new strategy. A multicultural Europe, based on the state primordial ethnicity is no
longer current; the cultural diversity does not lead to unity, but rather it is a factor of dissolution. The
Danubian model reunites races, languages and religions, being so diverse that their functional
diachrony justifies the idea of reconstruction, based on what it was, and it did not generate tensions or
conflicts. The ethnic identity did not become, in the Danube area, ethnicism, what it constitutes in a
synchronic approach, as a model of rethinking the union, not by hierarchies, barriers, but rather by the
opportunity of the coexistence of the peoples that connect history and the present of the horizontal
axis River of a united Europe.
