During the past 40 years, regions have become increasingly
important in Western Europe both as units of government and as
sources for political mobilization. This book examines why regional
identities are stronger in some regions than in others, and why
regional elites attempt to mobilize the public on a regionalist
agenda at certain points in time. The author develops a model that
explains change across space as well as time and provides a
comprehensive discussion of the causes of regionalism. It focuses
on endogenous developments in the regions and on change across time
in the economic and political landscapes of the regions. Using a
quantitative study of 212 Western European regions, which examine
whether regionalism is related to cultural, economic and political
characteristics of the regions, the book builds a model of the
causes of regionalism. The issues are further explored through case
studies on Scotland (UK) and Rogaland (Norway). This book will be
of interest to students and scholars of political and social
sciences, especially those with an interest in regions, regionalism
and regional nationalism, Scottish politics, Norwegian politics,
territorial identities and territorial politics.
