'The book does a fine job at setting contemporary Europe in almost every possible way without 'dumbing down' complex topics. It really addresses the question of what Europe is in an excellent and enormously readable style. A unique book and a real gift to lecturers and students trying to make sense of today's Europe.' - George Ross, ad personam Chaire Jean Monnet, Universite de Montreal, Canada, Morris Hillquit Professor Emeritus in Labor and Social Thought, Brandeis University, US, Faculty Associate, Minda de Gunzburg Center for European Studies, Harvard University, US and former chair of the European Studies Association 'Atruly excellent text, both admirably organized and edited. The individual chapters are of exemplary quality both with respect to their contents and their clarity of expression. Above all this book is highly original in its global contextualization of Europe and of European studies.' - Roland Robertson, Professor Emeritus of Sociology, University of Pittsburgh, USA and University of Aberdeen, UK 'A rich and inspiring source of information and analysis for students on the many facets of Europe. The book is unique in approaching Europe from a global perspective, asking for the interplay between the national, European and global level in shaping European cultures, societies and polities.' - Christian Lahusen, Professor of Sociology, Universitat Siegen, Germany
