Under the impact of accelerated globalization, transnational
integration and international security concerns, the geopolitics of
Europe's borders and border regions has become an area of critical
interest. The progressive enlargement of the EU has positioned its
borders at the heart of recent discussions on the changing nature
of the EU, the meaning of 'Europe' and what constitutional shape a
more politically unified Europe might take. With enlargement, the
EU must elaborate strategies to contend with a fiercely competitive
world - and to build fortress-like defences against perceived
tensions arising from greater cultural mixing and threats such as
terrorism. The authors build up an integral picture of the EU's
internal and external borders and borderlands to reveal the
processes of re-bordering and social change currently taking place
in Europe. They explore issues such as security, immigration,
economic development and changing social and political attitudes,
as well as the EU's relations with the Islamic world and other
world powers. The book embraces an array of disciplinary,
ideological and theoretical perspectives, offering detailed case
studies of different border regions and the concerns of the local
inhabitants, while engaging in broader discussions of developments
across Europe, state policies and the EU's relations with
neighbouring states. Geopolitics of European Union Enlargement will
be of key interest to students and researchers in the fields of
European politics, geography, international studies, sociology and
anthropology.
