%X In this text we offer a reflection organized and constructed from the dialogue and interventions among different speakers and participants during the first European Trail Symposium held in CIDOB, Barcelona, 18th of June 2010. And, as a dialogue held by many participants, this reflection starts from a transversal condition that structures its form and its matter: plurality. There is a plurality of voices, of perspectives, of interrelated topics and discussions, but it is also very much about ¡®plurality¡¯, of thought, of meaning, of relating, of culture. And significantly so, ¡®time¡® also becomes plural within this dialogue/debate, for in trying to account for questions such as "what does it mean to be European?", "what does it take to build a European Identity?", "is it something we should desire?", "might Europe become an Intercultural project?", "what might be gained from such a project and what is there to be lost?", etc., different times and temporal perspectives were to be introduced within the debate.
