<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>The cultural borders of Europe are today more visible than ever, and with them comes a sense of uncertainty with respect to liberal democratic traditions: whether treated as abstractions or concrete realities, cultural divisions challenge concepts of legitimacy and political representation as well as the legal bases for citizenship. Thus, an understanding of such borders and their consequences is of utmost importance for promoting the evolution of democracy. <em>Cultural Borders of Europe</em> provides a wide-ranging exploration of these lines of demarcation in a variety of regions and historical eras, providing essential insights into the state of European intercultural relations today.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p> <em>"[Published] in the outstanding Berghahn Books 'Making Sense of History' series, [this] seminal work of scholarship throughout, </em>Cultural Borders of Europe<em> is an especially and unreservedly recommended addition to both community and academic library Contemporary International Studies collections."</em> <strong>- Midwest Book Review</strong></p> <p> <em>"This very rich anthology, with contributions from many strands of the humanities and social sciences, should enrich the field of border(ing) studies that is now in high demand."</em> <strong>- Thomas Lundén</strong>, Södertörn University</p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p> <strong>Ingmar Söhrman</strong> was Professor of Romance languages at the University of Gothenburg.
