Reviews
An innovative and important collection. Divided Nations and European Integration offers a substantial contribution to nationalism studies and European studies. -Stephen Tierney, University of Edinburgh
Divided Nations and European Integration provides not only a sober account of the limited impact European integration has had on kin state policies across, and minority protection inside, international borders, it also offers an elegant explanation for variations that do not fit the stereotypical East-West divide. A must-read book for scholars in comparative nationalism studies, European integration studies, and international relations. -Rainer Baubock, European University Institute An excellent, up-to-date, normative, and empirical approach to the rights of national minorities in divided European nations. This subject is linked to the improvement of political liberty and political stability of contemporary democracies and has not received the attention it deserves by scholars until recent years. This volume is certain to become a major academic reference work for any reader interested in democracy, nationalism, and European affairs. -Ferran Requejo, Universitat Pompeu Fabra These renowned authors, under the able leadership of Mabry, McGarry, Moore, and O'Leary, innovate by bringing the areas of security studies and global justice to bear on the study of nations divided by state frontiers. In sharp contrast with the dominant literature in comparative politics and international relations, the contributors take seriously moral and political claims made by these communities. The volume advances a highly original approach to the question of how divided nations have been affected by European integration. -Alain-G. Gagnon, Universite du Quebec a Montreal An innovative and important collection. Divided Nations and European Integration offers a substantial contribution to nationalism studies and European studies. -Stephen Tierney, University of Edinburgh
This volume is persuasive, articulate, and coherent, and is a great read for anyone who is interested in understanding identity dynamics, histories, and narratives of the cases examined. It can also be used as a textbook at the undergraduate or graduate level. -Human Rights Quarterly This edited volume on divided nations and European integration is an insightful addition to the National and Ethnic Conflict in the 21st Century series from the University of Pennsylvania Press. ... an overall comprehensive examination of European integration and the divided nation. -Political Studies Review Divided Nations and European Integration provides not only a sober account of the limited impact European integration has had on kin state policies across, and minority protection inside, international borders, it also offers an elegant explanation for variations that do not fit the stereotypical East-West divide.
