European societies
Mapping structure and change
"Occupies a unique niche in the market in presenting a student-friendly overview of contemporary Europe and the societies that comprise it ... Faculty and students in courses examining contemporary Europe and the politics of EU are sure to find this book a valuable tool." International Journal of Social Welfare "A joy to read...clear and helpful." Tim Gully, University of Winchester "One of the first systematic texts on European society suitable for Undergraduates: an excellent teaching text" James Wickham, Trinity College Dublin "This is the first - and will probably for some time remain the only, so large is the task - book to cover systematically the social structure of the whole of Europe, east and west, written from the perspective of a single pair of authors. It manages to be highly accessible to students while not compromising at all its seriousness and academic integrity. " Colin Crouch, University of Warwick "This book takes seriously the properties of a society that emerges out of the increasing interaction of national societies in Europe. Based on an impressive grasp of comparative research the authors succeed in making sense of a "transnational" perspective on the emerging European society." Klaus Eder, Humboldt-Universitat zu Berlin
This comprehensive textbook provides a thorough analysis of the nature of European societies across the expanded EU member states. Using a wealth of data, the authors compare the different dimensions of the territorial and social order of Europe and address a range of issues relating to Europeanisation and key topics such as inequality, migration, poverty, population and family, the labour market and education.
