Summary/Abstract: The Idea of Europe between Human Uniqueness and Plurality. A Critical Demand of Our Self-image. Although the problem of the idea of Europe unfolded by Edmund Husserl may give the impression that it is a purely scientific problem, he already introduced this as a problem of behaviour. This thesis is taken up here and approached from various perspectives in order to unfold the existential significance of the idea of Europe for our lives. If the idea of Europe proves to be one that does not merely concern those who identify themselves as Europeans, then a responsibility extending beyond the borders of Europe is discovered, which is newly opened up fundamental impact of our imagination for our ideas and behaviours, concreating our realities.
