Since the end of the Cold War there has been an increased interest
in the Baltics. The Baltic States brings together three titles,
Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania, to provide a comprehensive and
analytical guide integrating history, political science, economic
development and contemporary events into one account. Since gaining
their independence, each country has developed at its own pace with
its own agenda and facing its own obstacles. The authors examine
the tensions accompanying a post-communist return to Europe after
the long years of separation and how each country has responded to
the demands of becoming a modern European state. Estonia was the
first of the former Soviet republics to enter membership
negotiations with the European Union in 1988 and is a potential
candidate for the next round of EU expansion in 2004. Lithuania and
Latvia have also expressed their desire for future membership of
NATO and the EU.
