Civilian Power
What exactly is the power that is exercised in civilian power relations? How and where does it manifest itself, and how does it shape the reality of interaction between states? This book provides an original look at civilian power, taking into account fundamental power theory as well as current debates on this subject. In this framework, it presents a comparative analysis of Euro-Israeli and Euro-Egyptian relations. The author thus makes an innovative contribution to power theory by offering new insights into the role of civilian power in Euro-Mediterranean relations.

New Regional Identities and Strategic Essentialism
Identity has become an important issue in many European regions. However, it has happened at a time when many scientists adopt critical stances regarding the concept of identity. This paradox encourages the authors of this book to explore some current discourse on regional identity in Poland ('Swietokrzyskie, 'Slaskie, Warmi'nsko-Mazurskie), Italy (Trentino-South Tyrol, Friuli Venezia Giulia, Veneto) and Germany (Brandenburg). Accounts of nation state contexts, thorough exploration of fields most important to the shaping of regional identity (school, regional media, representations of history, regional politics ), and reflections on the concept of strategic essentialism are among the book's key features.
