✦ Synopsis

This text provides an examination of the balance between state and region, centre and periphery, capital and province, within a variety of member states of the European Union. In each case there is analysis of the affirmation of regional identity in a historical context, the growth of regional development, and the dynamics of region/state and inter-regional competition and cooperation. The book questions what it means to be Welsh, or British: Breton, or French: Catalan, or Spanish. It asks questions like - what does it mean to be European? And what are the relationships between categories of belonging?
