Book Synopsis Modern Europe by : Brian Graham

Download or read book Modern Europe written by Brian Graham and published by Hodder Education. This book was released on 1998 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the apparent paradox between Europe's ongoing plans for integration, and the continent's enduring cultural, political, and economic diversity. Looking at contemporary issues and setting them in a historical context, the contributors show how this diversity has always been a principle characteristic of European society, and discuss the ways in which nationalism and the nation-state emerged as one means of controlling that heterogeneity. They go on to argue that identity in modern Europe is again becoming multi-faceted, proposing that the continent's geographies can be defined only through inclusivist multiculturalism.
