Central and Eastern Europe has a long history of, on the one hand,
ethnic conflicts and, on the other, of a revolutionary tradition
against expansionism. Both have their roots in the geographical
situation and ethnic composition of the region. All these problems
have surfaced at times when the political status quo has been upset
for some reason, such as after the two world wars and after the
collapse of the Soviet Union. Both great powers bordering the
Danube region - Germany and Russia - have strived to develop their
own versions of confederations (Mitteleuropa and Pan-Slavic
movements). Also, politicians and intellectuals of the countries
affected have proposed various theories, and made initiatives for
different forms of closer and looser confederative formations. This
book examines the reasons for the failure of these initiatives,
these reasons including such factors as ethnically-motivated
political antagonism, and the lack of economic complementarity.
Contributing information on the problems of political and economic
integration, which should not be forgotten in a period when the
countries of the region are looking towards the European Union,
expecting - realistically or not - the solution of their various
conflicts.
