This timely book, which is based on the results of the Integration of the Second Generation in Europe survey, presents the disturbing results of a recent study in Stockholm that examines the experiences of residents descended from Turkish migrants. Focusing on three different ethnonational groups" Turks, Kurds, and Syriacs"the contributors explore issues such as identity, family situation, language use, education, labor market experiences, and employment. The essays highlight the varying degrees of success each group has achieved in the process of trying to integrate into Stockholm society. The book also examines the widespread discrimination and exclusion the descendants of migrants experience. As a whole, this volume shows a troubling picture of the obstacles faced by immigrants in new societies.

Maps the post-Cold War political landscape within the contributions by prominent theorists and commentators of the post-Cold War period. The book puts forward a critical reading of the term "post-Cold War" and what it implies - clearly its most immediate interpretation is the disappearance of the Walls and Iron Curtains and the consequent shift away from a global bipolar power structure and we hope a nuclear arms race. However, more broadly, one might take the term to mean the late 20th and early 21st century, allowing us to talk more generally about the changes to the world market economy, the strengthening of regional units, technological change, the growth in international organizations and so on. Thirdly, there is the implication that this is an era in which the world finds itself paying renewed attention to matters that may have been neglected during the Cold War - nationalism being a major one.

The tension between nationalism and internationalism has been a major feature of world politics since the end of the Cold War. Based on a Nobel symposium, this collection brings together an international selection of acclaimed authors from a wide variety of academic disciplines. The book combines focused case-studies and more theoretically based material to examine critically the post-Cold War political landscape. Subjects covered include:
* changing interpretation of the nation state and nationalism
* the growing prominence of transnational organisations
* technological changes in information, communication and transport
* multiculturalism and citizenship
*ethnicity and religious identity in African, Indian, Bosnian and Polish nationalism
* the growing global significance of Islam.
