Borders and Memories

Borders and border regions are shaped by many phenomena connected with both co-operation and conflict. The neighbourhood, cross-border contacts, illegal migration, border crossings, prejudices and stereotypes, border guards, and perceptions of borders are some of the key words that characterize the articles in this volume. The book deals with European border regions that have experienced numerous changes over the 20th century. Because of this changeable, frequently painful past, different human stories – mostly tragic or romanticized – individual and collective memories, mythologies with heroes, and divergent perceptions of history developed. Most authors in this volume deal with conflicts and co-operation that can either be remembered or forgotten.

The Media, European Integration and the Rise of Euro-journalism, 1950s–1970s

This book explains how the media helped to invent the European Union as the supranational polity that we know today. Against normative EU scholarship, it tells the story of the rise of the Euro-journalists – pro-European advocacy journalists – within the post-war Western European media. The Euro-journalists pioneered a journalism which symbolically magnified the technocratic European Community as the embodiment of Europe. Normative research on the media and European integration has focused on how the media might help to construct a democratic and legitimate European Union. In contrast, this book aims to deconstruct how journalists – as part of Western European elites – played a key role in elite European identity building campaigns.

Enlarging one's vision

Il processo di internazionalizzazione della ricerca negli ultimi anni ha subito una rapida accelerazione ed ha comportato una serie di innovazioni. Il volume fornisce una serie di indicazioni e strumenti, per facilitare l’acquisizione di una certa dimestichezza con tali processi: come partecipare a congressi rispondendo a call for paper, come pubblicare su riviste straniere, come trascorrere un periodo di studio all’estero e via dicendo. Il libro raccoglie 15 saggi brevi, chiari, concreti e critici al contempo, opera di studiosi già noti e altri più giovani, tutti esperti dell’argomento (G.Bandini, A.Barausse, P.Bianchini, M.Brunelli A.Cagnolati, L.Cappelli, D.Caroli, D.De Salvo, A.Debè, J.L.Hernández Huerta, F.Loparco, J.Meda, E.Patrizi.

Although air transport is indispensable to modern society, we know little about the diplomatic efforts that establish airline services. Nonetheless, aviation features prominently in the spectrum of international relations: in conflicts between states, for example, the suspension of landing rights is one of the first acts to symbolize serious discord. In tracing the unique cooperation between government and industry, this historical study underscores aviation as a prominent, but understudied topic in Dutch foreign relations.
