Description: The prospects for European unity excite speculation throughout the world, but especially in the United States. The politics of change in Europe reminds Americans of the difficult but inexorable process of unification that marked the founding of the American nation in the 1780s and 1790s. The chapters in this volume explore many espects of the political and social change taking place in Europe, noting parallels to the American case.
