De-coding New Regionalism (eBook, ePUB)

Shifting Socio-political Contexts in Central Europe and Latin America
Redaktion: Scott, James W.

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Bringing together comparative case studies from Central Europe and South America, this book focuses on 'new' regions - regions created as political projects of modernization and 're-scaling'. Through this approach it de-codes 'New Regionalism' in terms of its contributions to institutional change, while acknowledging its contested nature and contradictions.
