The author analyses goals which considered by political and intellectual elites as well as measures directed towards construction of identity. Analytical materials and reports of European Council and media publications are core primary sources used in the article. The author concludes that in the context of of European architecture change the transformation of narratives becomes permanent process, but the crisis is not only context. The growing diversification process including economic, political, ethnical is also important part of contemporary European development. This process requires new explanations and narratives and transforms European narrative into European narrativisation. The decline of Europe in reality means decline of old European narrative.
