It also looks in particular at the peripheral regions of Europe - the less developed parts of 'old' Europe, the parts of old Europe that are outside or only half-inside the EU, the new member-states of the EU, and Turkey as the most important EU candidate country. It takes as its methodological starting point the theory of network alignment as developed in SPRU 606 $aSystem theory$xSocial aspects 606 $aBusiness networks$zEurope 606 $aSocial networks$zEurope 606 $aInformation networks$xSocial aspects$zEurope 607 $aEurope$xEconomic conditions$y21st century 607 $aEurope$xSocial conditions$y21st century 615 0$aSystem theory$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aBusiness networks 615 0$aSocial networks 615 0$aInformation networks$xSocial aspects 676 $a338/.064094 701 $aDyker$b David A$0127238 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910814561403321 996 $aNetwork dynamics in emerging regions of Europe$94030166 997 $aUNINA
