Politics of Europeanization and Post-Socialist Transformations

Informationen zum Autor Nicole Lindstrom is Lecturer in Politics, University of York, UK. Klappentext This study examines conflicts arising from the dual processes of Europeanization and post-socialist transformations, from gaining independence in 1991 to facing the current economic crisis. Through an in-depth comparison of Estonia and Slovenia over time, it shows how elite actors within these two very different welfare capitalist states resisted EU pressures to change their cohesive and successful national models.
