What if the “small steps” approach so dear to Jean Monnet had all started with the creation of a media? Like language or currency, the media can be an effective tool in the construction of collective awareness and identity. Yet European editorial projects are still few and far between.

Yet given that initiatives like VoxEurop, Political Critique, Are We Europe and Café Babel do exist, is it not time to encourage the birth and growth of other platforms? How can the development of these new transnational media contribute to the invention of a new European citizenship?
