Geremek's new appointment takes him on search for European identity
Former Foreign Minister Bronislaw Geremek has been appointed Dean of the
Faculty of European Civilization at the College of Europe in Natolin in
Warsaw. The faculty, set up by the Robert Bosch Foundation, is charged with
providing education in politics, culture and European identity. "This is the
first faculty of its kind in Poland," explained Rector of the College of
Europe, Piotr Nowina-Konopka. Commenting on his appointment, Geremek said
the faculty would seek answers to the basic questions of whether the
European identity still exists and if it has any significance in the era of
globalization. The Warsaw college is a sister institution of the College of
Europe in Bruges. (Gazeta Wyborcza, p. 4) A.Z.
