Contemporary Europe

de Richard Sakwa, Anne Stevens

"Contemporary Europe is a progressive new textbook designed to help students understand the many facets of life in Europe at the beginning of the 21st century. Europe's identity is changing as the Western part becomes ever more closely integrated and the Eastern part grapples with the problem of democratisation. Focusing equally on Eastern as well as Western Europe, the book deals with the main facets of the questions 'What is Europe?' and 'Where is Europe going?' The book challenges preconceived notions and goes beyond 'Eurospeak' to explore difficult issues about Europe's past, present and future. Book jacket."--BOOK JACKET. P. 20. P. 46. P. 64. P. 84.
