Examples from other countries are also discussed, in particular some of the Balkan countries, where the parallel process of building a national identity while also establishing a European one is taking place.

La maison européenne
La maison européenne : représentations de l'Europe du 20e siècle dans les manuels d'histoire décrit l'évolution générale qu'a connue au cours de la dernière décennie la présentation de l'histoire européenne du 20e siècle et propose un panorama des interprétations générées par certains aspects de l'histoire, tels l'Occupation, l'Holocauste et le génocide, pour n'en citer que quelques-uns. L'auteur analyse également la façon dont est traitée la dimension européenne dans les livres d'histoire, notion que les Etats membres du Conseil de l'Europe souhaitaient voir prise en compte dans les manuels d'histoire dès 1953. Cette étude s'appuie sur l'analyse transversale de manuel...
Schulbücher als Vermittler der Europäischen Integration?
Ohne Kenntnisse über die Europäische Union lässt sich Politik heute nicht mehr verstehen und gestalten. Aber was lernen Schülerinnen und Schüler in Deutschland über die Europäische Union? Diese Studie verbindet auf innovative Weise zwei Ebenen der empirischen Schulbuchforschung: Zum einen wird die Darstellung der Europäischen Integration in Schulbüchern für allgemeinbildende Schulen untersucht, zum anderen werden die Verwendung und Bewertung der Schulbücher durch Lehrkräfte und Schülerinnen und Schüler an niedersächsischen Gymnasien und Gesamtschulen analysiert.

Crafting Democracy
The Novgorod region of Russia is a sparsely populated area about the size of Ireland better known for its medieval archaeology and folklore than for anything else. Although Novgorod began the post-Soviet period with no unusual endowment of natural or human resources, it has attracted a large amount of foreign investment. Its dramatic economic success and political innovation have impressed observers. Local governments deliver benefits and services reliably, and the regional government responds quickly to citizens' needs and demands. Something noteworthy is happening in Novgorod that does not square with familiar headlines about contemporary Russia: oligarchs and oil, ethnic tensions and corr...
Public Policy And Law in Russia: In Search of a Unified Legal And Political Space
This work traces the attempt to complete the creation of a unified legal and political system in contemporary Russia. Multiple political and legal aspects of the problem are examined by both political scientists and legal scholars. The volume focuses on post-Soviet developments in Russia, especially during the Putin administration. The contributors' perspectives include constitutional law, judicial development, law reform, human rights, federalism, and international law. The collective study finds that much progress has been made toward the unification of political and legal space in Russia, although significant problems remain to be addressed in order for the process to continue to move forward.
The Nation, Europe, and the World
Textbooks in history, geography and the social sciences provide important insights into the ways in which nation-states project themselves. Based on case studies of France, Germany, the Netherlands, Spain, Greece, Turkey Bulgaria, Russia, and the United States, this volume shows the role that concepts of space and time play in the narration of 'our country' and the wider world in which it is located. It explores ways in which in western European countries the nation is reinterpreted through European lenses to replace national approaches in the writing of history. On the other hand, in an effort to overcome Eurocentric views,'world history' has gained prominence in the United States. Yet again, East European countries, coming recently out of a transnational political union, have their own issues with the concept of nation to contend with. These recent developments in the field of textbooks and curricula open up new and fascinating perspectives on the changing patterns of the re-positioning process of nation-states in West as well as Eastern Europe and the United States in an age of growing importance of transnational organizations and globalization.
