Description - Regionalist Parties in Western Europe by Lieven De Winter
Ethnoregionalist parties are an increasingly influential political phenomenon in many Western European countries. Despite this there has been little systematic study of these important political parties. This volume fills the gap with an exploration of the successes and failures experienced by ethnoregionalist parties in post-war Europe. Ethnoregionalist Parties in Western Europe looks in detail at the fortunes of twelve regionalist parties in: the Basque country; Corsica; French speaking Belgium; Scotland; Wales; Catalonia; Flanders; Italy; South Tyrol Using these in-depth case studies and a common conceptual framework, the contributors focus in on a number of factors that influence party identity and electoral and policy success. The study also addresses other key areas such as how they operate at the European Union level, their future evolution and the implications for the party system and the larger political system of which they are a part.
