Publisher Synopsis
A scrupulous, clearly organized, and highly informative _ analysis of one of the great success stories of our time. _ Vachudova combines the methods of comparative politics and_ international relations to explore the very direct _ connections between political change in Central and Eastern Europe and the influence of the European Union over the _ fifteen years from the velvet revolutions of 1989 to the _ eastward enlargement of the EU in 2004. * Timothy Garton _ Ash, Professor of European Studies, University of Oxford, _ and Senior Fellow, Hoover Institution, Stanford University_ * In this important study, Vachudova develops an original and compelling analysis of how variations in domestic _ competition and changes in EU leverage combined to shape _ postcommunist political and economic pathways in East _ Central Europe. * Valerie Bunce, Professor and Chair of _ Government, Aaron Binenkorb Chair of International Studies, Cornell University _ _ * Europe Undivided is an exemplary work of the new comparative-international politics. It is a subtle and substantial analysis of how asymmetric interdependence and meritocratic European Union membership criteria combined to enhance the influence of the EU on domestic political reforms in Eastern Europe. * Robert O. Keohane, Professor of International Affairs, Woodrow Wilson School * Read more...
