Add your own review!

Overview

Transforming the European Nation State provides a comprehensive introduction to the key political issues and concepts that characterize the contemporary study of Europe. Kjell Goldmann introduces and maps the complex interaction between internationalization, state, nation and democracy to advance a new conceptual framework for the study of political change in Europe. Part one explains the dynamics of processes of internationalization and globalization. Part two assesses the impact and implications for nation-states, national identities and political cultures. Part three addresses the debates and issues around new forms of international democracy and European citizenship. Throughout the text, theoretical ideas and concepts are accessibly introduced and illustrated with a wide range of empirical examples from across contemporary Europe. This timely volume is based on a course option taught in the Department of Political Science at Stockholm University, and the material has been extensively used and reworked via class use and feedback.

Reviews

'Goldmann is a master of concise conceptualization and meaningful distinctions. Employing this unique talent, he has written a book, which is a major step forward in the analysis of internationalization and governance beyond the nation state, on both counts precise and innovative. A must for anyone interested in international politics and Europeanization' - Michael Zuern, University of Bremen 'Goldmann's volume makes a major contribution to the debates about the fate of states in an era of internationalization and globalization' - K J Holsti, University of British Columbia
