Is Europe witnessing the death of the once-mighty nation-state? If it si, then two of the most powerful factors in its post-war decline have been European integration and regionalism. This book provides a definitive examination of the new patterns of politics and policy that link the three levels of European Union, nation-state, and region. Looking at each member state in turn, the authors emphasize the diversity of European experience. This book examines how integration and regional assertion threaten this institution and are altering the politics of Europe as it moves towards the twenty-first century.
