| Goal |
- To gain insight into historic events that shaped European integration through cartoons.
- To familiarize yourself with the European Navigator website, a multimedia tool on the history of European Integration.
|
| Introduction |
Cartoons are a good way to get a better feel for the sentiment that surrounded major steps in European integration. In this exercise you will select a cartoon from a significant moment and analyze it. |
| Steps |
- Go to the website of CVCE and search the keyword: cartoon. (If desired, you can access the page in English, German and French.)
- Search for a cartoon that reflects on an episode in European integration and copy it in the answering screen.
|
| Questions |
- Briefly annotate the cartoon by describing the context and reflecting upon the message the cartoonist tried to convey. Are their features that make the cartoon very time-specific? Are there parallels with today’s politics and debates in the EU?
