AB  - This OBS* Special Issue has been organized within the remit of the EUMEPLAT research consortia, which is subordinate  to  the  theme:  European  Media  Platforms –Assessing  Positive  and  Negative  Externalities  for European Culture. The term ‘externalities’ here metaphorically refers to the logics of platforms that impact media  use  and  sharing,  with  implications  as  regards  the  definition  and  renegotiation  of  meanings  of European identity, citizenship, community –both physical and imaginary –and belongingness. Distinguishing the European polity, which takes form in European institutions, from European culture, as something much more  plural  than  the  polity,  Jostein  Gripsrud  (2007)  referred  to  television  as  assuming  a  particularly important  role  in  fostering  a  sentiment  of  European-ness, so that ‘European citizens’ may ‘in time have acquired a sense of themselves as also Europeans, not just German, British, Estonian, etc.’ (490). This secondary habitus would correspond to an additional layer in ‘affiliations and affinities’ (Ibid.), similar to national identity albeit less intense. Gripsrud, in fact, does not mention European-ness nor Europeanity, but rather  speaks  of  the  European  public  sphere  as a broad  cultural  community,  to  which  television  has contributed on the quotidian level by informally disseminating factors and contexts that are an integral part of the construction of European identity, without challenging the sociocultural distinctions between nation-States.
