Description

This short and simple introduction to European politics, which includes Western and Eastern Europe as well as Russia, demonstrates how European nations have attempted to cope with division within Europe and in international politics.

Highlighting differences with U.S. politics, Slomp examines the European system from various perspectives, including geography, religion, economics, and social composition.

Two separate chapters discuss relations within the European Union as well as its interaction with nations outside the group.

Tables and figures provide a wealth of information on the location of minorities, the ideological spectrum, and social policies. Directed toward both an American and a European readership, this study includes information about the importance of ethnicity and religion, the impact of new migration waves, and the position of the labor movement.

It covers the role of political parties, the Americanization of election campaigns, and the prevalence of coalition governments.

A chapter on European style civil society focuses on the influence of pressure groups, the popularity of formal business/trade union/government contracts, the mass media, local politics, and federal political systems.

Every chapter deals with the social transformation of the former communist countries of Central and Eastern Europe.

A final section contains a brief description of all the nations by groupings.
