This book argues that contemporary European politics creates new
forms of transnational power that challenge the traditional
parameters of the nation-state. Kauppi identifies and critically
explores the evolving dynamics between national and transnational
spaces, groups and knowledge, and suggests that European public
policies and transnational institutions like the European
Parliament create new spaces, types of knowledge and novel
political practices. Toward a Reflexive Political Sociology of the
European Union is structured around three parts. The first focuses
on evolving transnational fields. The second explores the changing
role of academics and universities. The third section engages with
the works of Pierre Bourdieu on politics and the media. The issues
discussed throughout the book revolve around the challenges to the
nation-state and of knowledge production that is tied to it. This
book will be an invaluable resource to academics and researchers
interested in European politics, European Union studies and
political sociology.
