Post-identity? (eBook, ePUB)

Culture and European Integration
Redaktion: Mcmahon, Richard

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Mechanisms of identity, borrowed from nationalism, have not worked well as cultural supports for European political integration. This controversial and timely volume therefore brings together leading scholars from several disciplines, each with distinct approaches to investigating culture. Contributors explore alternative links between culture and the politics of integration.
