Description	The article discusses the role of humour in relation to social critique. It describes a case study of the scultural work "Entropa" by David Černý, focusing on the controversy caused by the critical nature of the work, which aimed to undermine, in a humorous way, many existing stereotypes about individual nations in the EU.
