What constitutes a European identity? Mathias Spude, Director Communications of EADS Astrium, looks at diffent paths to grasp the concept of identity.

At first, he points to the European institutions which have been creating an identity for many years now. After that, Spude gives a fresh insight into the work of EADS Astrium, a leading space manufacturer in the fields of aerospace, defence and related services, in order to analyse the influence of the Corporate identity to the European spirit. Finally, he looks into different fields like politics, language, national states and participation to find out what it means to be European.
