Abstract

The EU has engaged with cultural policy especially after the Maastricht treaty in 1992. To compare the division within two EU institutions, this paper mainly analyses the EU official documents: the “European Agenda for culture in a globalizing world”, published by the European Commission in 2007 – which was the first “Communication” regarding cultural policy – and “Work Plan for Culture” which was published as “Conclusions” by the Council of the European Union. The aim of this paper is to reveal that the Council focus only on a part of the policy of the European Commission on culture. It also concluded that the main strategies of the EU cultural policy have changed to incorporate some non-profitable aims.
