'How many Europes?' is a critical question that led to several
attempts to analyse European crises and transformations globally.
This book builds upon the argument that Europe cannot be reduced to
a singular dynamic, identity or vision, but rather provides a
four-fold taxonomy: Thin, Thick, Parochial and Global Europe. The
book contributors aim to respond to the emerging necessity to
incorporate both the parochial dynamics unmaking Europe and the
globalist dynamics decentering Europe into the analysis of European
crises and transformations in diverse sectors ranging from security
and foreign policy to the rule of law and democracy. Accordingly,
this book is unpacking Europe in a time of severe crises facing the
EU-such as Brexit, the Syrian refugee crisis, Catalan secessionism,
the rise of far right, and terrorism-, which have accelerated the
resurgence of formerly marginalized and repressed dynamics as
influential trends in national, regional and global politics. It
reveals an ongoing hegemonic struggle over the representation of
Europe among 'many Europes' involving two separate integrationist
models of regionalization -or 'Europe-making'- and two distinct
dynamics that have sought to fragment and de-centre the European
Union through nationalism and globalism respectively. The chapters
in this book were originally published as a special issue of
European Politics and Society.
Over the last decade, anti-government demonstrations worldwide have
brought together individuals and groups that were often assumed
unlikely to unite for a common cause due to differences in
ideological tendencies. They have particularly highlighted the role
of youth, women, social media, and football clubs in establishing
unusual alliances between far left and far right groups and/or
secular and religious segments of the society. In this wide-ranging
volume, the contributors question to what extent political
ideologies have lost their explanatory power in contemporary
politics and society. This book aims to contribute to the ongoing
debates about the relationship between ideology and public protests
by introducing the global context that allows the comparison of
societies in different parts of the world in order to reveal the
general patterns underlying the global era. Tackling a highly
topical issue, this book will be of particular interest to students
and scholars of international relations, social movements and
globalization.
