By charting with great skill and amazing erudition the evolution of British nationality from antiquity to the present, the author shows us Britain's unique place and role in the European Union.\"\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003ci\u003eProf. Avihu Zakai, The Hebrew University of Jerusalem, author of\u003c\/i\u003e Exile and Kingdom: History and Apocalypse in the Puritan Migration to America (Cambridge University Press).\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eIn the series: A Post- or Super-Nationality in the European Union\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe series' purpose is to discover the true level of national identity within the European Union - whether specific state-nationality prevails, whether that nationality is solid and, if not, whether a consolidated process of pan-European nationality is taking the place of the state-nationality system.

Its conclusions suggest that the British are unique among the ten groups: living on their island, they feel aloof from the Europeans, they have strong memories of their past empire, and they feel proud of their monarchy that symbolizes their glorious past - a feeling that strengthened them in times of peril during two World Wars. Thus the British do not seem inclined to exchange their identity for European nationality and economy, and they alone of the ten groups may eventually leave the EU in order to retain their identity.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFor all volumes of the series (hardcover \u0026amp; paperback) kindly check the publisher's website: www.priestspublishing.com\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Yehuda Cohen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1505853532\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781505853537\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/30\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 308\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.91lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.02h x 5.98w x 0.64d","brand":"Yehuda Cohen","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48439516987647,"sku":"9781505853537","price":29.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_dbd7c408-db3b-456d-aa2b-140d78e74305.jpg?v=1777178105","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-british-yehuda-cohen-9781505853537","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
