The crisis in Europe is often discussed as a crisis of European
integration or a crisis of national economies within Europe. Both
the 'methodological Europeanism' and 'methodological nationalism'
miss out the important links between economic and political
processes at different spatial scales within Europe, and therefore,
asymmetries and phenomena of uneven development. In addition, a
discussion of possible scenarios which systematically addresses the
implications of anti-crisis policies is missing. This volume seeks
to close this gap by systematically integrating the analysis of
economic policy or 'technical' solutions to the crisis within a
broader framework of political economy. It argues that combining
critical political economy approaches and post-Keynesian
perspectives allows for a systematic understanding of the economic
and political dimensions of the crisis. Although both approaches
have the capacity to deal with asymmetries and uneven development,
the heterogeneity in Europe has been an often largely neglected
dimension of analysis. However, this recent crisis has shown that
this is an essential dimension which has to be addressed in order
to better understand the dynamics of European development and
integration. Hence, this book aims to deal with asymmetries in
Europe and to bridge the gap between the two perspectives. This
work will initiate an integrative debate that is crucial for a
deeper understanding of the current crisis and is an important
resource for all students and scholars of IPE, European political
economy and European politics.

Against the backdrop of combating the financial and economic crisis
in the European Union for the past decade, this volume strives to
explore the manifold impacts the prevailing crisis management has
on the further alignment of European Integration. The efforts
targeted at overcoming the financial and economic crisis evoked
far-reaching consequences on the societal, economic, and political
level within European member states, which in turn challenge the
institutional alignment, democratic legitimacy and economic
coherence of the European Union. Taking into account current
developments in the EU, the contributions presented in this volume
focus on the 'fault lines' in the integration process, i.e.
questions of policy coherence, democratic accountability,
financialization, militarization, migration, gendered social and
economic asymmetries as well as the rise of populist and extreme
right-wing parties. The volume focuses on how these different
developments come together by relating aspects of transdisciplinary
research to uncover the fault lines in the European integration
project in the subsequent chapters. ContentEconomic and Democratic

Vietnam und Kambodscha wiesen in den letzten Jahren eine starke
wirtschaftliche Entwicklung auf und werden international als
aufstrebende Markte Asiens wahrgenommen. Gleichzeitig haben eine
hohe Bevolkerungsdichte, starke und unkontrollierte Urbanisierung,
sowie die wirtschaftliche Entwicklung der letzten Jahre negative
Umweltentwicklungen in beiden Landern nach sich gezogen. In Vietnam
werden diese vor allem im Bereich der Abfallentsorgung, der
Luftverschmutzung und bei der Wasserqualitat deutlich. Ahnlich
verhalt es sich in Kambodscha, wobei hier die mangelnde
Energieversorgung den zentralen Bereich der Umweltherausforderungen
darstellt. Der vorliegende Band geht von den bestehenden Mangeln in
den Bereichen Abfall, Wasser, Energie und Luft aus und zeigt
Investitions- und Projektmoglichkeiten auf. Theoretische
Grundlagen, wie Rahmengesetze und Finanzierungsmoglichkeiten,
werden um Erfahrungsberichte und best practise Beispiele erganzt.
So wurde ein kompakter Band geschaffen, der die Potentiale und
Herausforderungen in Vietnam und Kambodscha herausstreicht und sich
als Wegweiser fur Investitionen im Bereich der Umwelttechnologie,
speziell fur osterreichische Unternehmen, versteht.
