By means of a comparative analysis of eight small unitary states in Europe, this book shows that the impact of the EU on subnational mobilization is filtered through domestic mediating factors which can lead to three possible outcomes: decentralization, recentralization or no change. The book offers a balanced combination of analytical clarity and the richness of empirical accounts in a wide diversity of case studies. It sheds a new light on the 'hybrid nature' of the European polity and demonstrates that member state governments have remained the most important pieces of the European puzzle. Overall, it arrives at two conclusions: first, that we are witnessing a 'transformation of the state' rather than its demise; second, the notion of a 'Europe of the Regions' in small unitary states was no more than a 'damp squib'. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of the journal, \u003ci\u003eRegional \u0026amp; Federal Studies.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sandrina Antunes\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0367629631\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780367629632\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/27\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 210\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.05lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.50d","brand":"Sandrina Antunes","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48086538846463,"sku":"9780367629632","price":190.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_f10b2e67-58b3-476a-8909-51feb1f97741.jpg?v=1769095247","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/europeanization-and-territorial-politics-in-sandrina-antunes-9780367629632","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
