This survey of contemporary European politics examines: the strengths and continuing challenges of democracy in Britain, France, Germany and Italy in the last decades of the 20th century, the new Europe emerging from the growth of the European Community and the challenges facing those who would build democracies in the other Europe. Issues considered include the meaning of sovereignty and the problems of West Eurpoean democracies at the time when many talk of a triumph of democracy. New to this edition are sections on the political changes in Eastern Europe and the European Community.
