Description du livre
Katharina
Crepaz investigates how two-dimensional ('top-down' and 'bottom-up')
Europeanization processes affect minority communities by using a
comparative approach, encompassing cases from both „old"
(pre-2004) and „new" EU member-states. The author thereby
bridges two dichotomies made in the literature so far, and outlines
how Europeanization takes place in non-acquis areas. She does so by
looking at four very different case studies: the German-speaking
minority in South Tyrol/Italy, the Bretons in France, the German
minority in Silesia/Poland, and the Italian minority in
Istria/Croatia.
