Overview
This book examines the apparent paradox between Europe's ongoing plans for integration, and the continent's enduring cultural, political, and economic diversity. Looking at contemporary issues and setting them in a historical context, the contributors show how this diversity has always been a principle characteristic of European society, and discuss the ways in which nationalism and the nation-state emerged as one means of controlling that heterogeneity. They go on to argue that identity in modern Europe is again becoming multi-faceted, proposing that the continent's geographies can be defined only through inclusivist multiculturalism.
