Ortega y Gasset was one of the few thinkers of his time that understood the changing geopolitical situation of the world that led to the loss of the European hegemony. As an answer he proposed United Europe, that would be not only an economic unity, but first of all a society of vital ideas, not empty cliches. Without such an ideological foundation Europe can only be a temporary and destined for the slow fading away political fact. The author of the article stresses that the basis of the revival of Europe must be a return to all that is European by nature and defines Europe as it was - the ancient Greek rationalism and the system of values connected with it. The only way to build new Europe is by support of the category of the managers as well as the workers' responsibility. %K the crisis of the eurocentrism %K United Europe %K European identity %K rationalism %U http://versita.metapress.com/content/j44741301r152717/?p=5936c724fe2a4075b491ef0e77baa262&pi=6
