Governing the New Europe
Autor Hayward Editat de Jack Hayward, Professor Page, Edward C.en Limba Engleză Paperback – 30 sep 1995
Beginning with a discussion of the political, economic, and cultural development of Europe from a historical perspective, the focus of the book shifts to an examination of the changing forms of European democracy and the move from public ownership and planning to privatization and deregulated competition. Further essays analyze the challenge to national party systems and electoral performance from emerging social movements and organized interest groups. Political and bureaucratic structures are also examined as is the new European constitutionalism reflected in the increasingly significant role of the judiciary. Lastly, attention is turned to several major themes in European politics: the changing foundations of foreign and security policy, the function of industrial champion firms, and the retreat from the welfare state. Primarily comparative in its scope, "Governing the New Europe" does devote particular attention to specific major states as well as to the importance of the European Union to the political life of member and non-member countries.
Neither exaggerating the common features of the patterns that have emerged in contemporary Europe nor capitulating to the complexity of enduring differences and instabilities between states, "Governing the New Europe" will become one of the standard texts in its field.

Textul de pe ultima copertă
Between 1947 and 1989 European politics was dominated by an East-West divide that was geographically identified with a split between the areas dominated by the Soviet Union and the United States superpowers, and ideologically identified with the split between capitalists democracy and communist autocracy.
