Sommario/riassunto

Covering a period from the Middle Ages through the 1990's, and addressing phenomena overlooked by Rokkan such as state building and nationalism, this book demonstrates that Rokkan's models continue to be relevant to modern political science and sociology. Kommisrud's study is a valuable contribution to Rokkanian approaches and the understanding of Eastern European development within the historical and geographic context of Europe as a whole.
