Sommario/riassunto

<span><span>This book combines the conceptualization of social identity with historical analysis to rethink discussions of Europeanization and minorities. Problematizing the EU's attempts to create a "European social identity," it demonstrates how post-war Europeanization instead generated new sources of identity polarization that produced the new minorities.</span></span>
