From the Atlantic to the Urals: National Perspectives on the New Europe

Recent events have radically transformed the bipolar system that prevailed in Europe for more than 40 years. For the first time in decades, the possibility of a true pan-European system--a Europe from the Atlantic to the Urals--has emerged. The essays in this book examine the possibilities, opportunities and dangers of this new system from the perspectives of East, Central and Western Europeans themselves, giving us a glimpse of the new Europe as seen through the eyes of those who will live in it.
