The benefit of supranational organization is no longer obvious to European citizens and questions of legitimacy have accompanied the EU's development over the last decades. Regions - albeit often deemed »obsolete« - present themselves as stable and reliable partners in this turbulent environment: in being important objects of identification to their citizens, but also relevant political and legal entities in the EU's multilevel governance system. This edited volume asks about the role of regions and regional identity in a European Union that is perhaps struggling more than ever about its future. 410 $aEdition Politik 606 $aRegions; European Integration; Multilevel Governance; Trends; Democracy; Political Science; Europe; Politics; European Politics; International Relations; 607 $aEuropean Union countries$xPolitics and government$y21st century 610 $aDemocracy. 610 $aEurope. 610 $aEuropean Integration. 610 $aEuropean Politics. 610 $aInternational Relations. 610 $aMultilevel Governance. 610 $aPolitical Science. 610 $aPolitics. 610 $aTrends. 615 4$aRegions; European Integration; Multilevel Governance; Trends; Democracy; Political Science; Europe; Politics; European Politics; International Relations; 676 $a341.2422 702 $aDonat$b Elisabeth$pDonau-Universita?t Krems, O?sterreich$4edt 702 $aMeyer$b Sarah$pDonau-Universita?t Krems, O?sterreich$4edt 702 $aAbels$b Gabriele$f1964-$pUniversita?t Tu?bingen, Deutschland$4edt 712 02$atranscript: Open Library 2020 (Politik)$4fnd$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/fnd 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910487542603321 996 $aEuropean Regions$91938971 997 $aUNINA
