Summary:

This study traces the radical transformation of European places and spaces over the last two decades. Instead of the familiar "schoolbook" map of a Europe of nation-states, McNeill unpacks the differing imaginations of European identity. Taking as his central problem the fluid nature of cultural and political identity, he moves firmly away from--and calls into question--the perspective of the nation-state as the primary source of imagined identity for Europeans.
