about violent ethnic conflict . Drawing on a
wealth of theoretical and empirical sources,
this book tackles some of the prevailing ques-
tions on the root causes and management of
ethnic conflict . Under what conditions do
ethnic minorities become violent? How cred-

and «greed» in explaining the outbreak of
conflict? Is the use of coercive diplomacy a
superior alternative to direct military forms
of intervention? This book provides an analytical
account of the socio-economic roots
of ethnic conflict, the opportunities for violent
mobilization and the success of strategic
coercion in the Former Yugoslav Republic of

he aim of this book is to highlight the
crucial challenges the EU and its partners
are facing within the framework of the
European Neighbourhood Policy (ENP) . The
approach followed is of an interdisciplinary
nature . Lawyers, economists, political scientists
and experts of geopolitical and geostrategic
issues have contributed to this book
that is sub-divided into three parts, namely:
‘transversal challenges’, ‘challenges in the
Mediterranean and the Middle-East’, and
‘challenges in Europe and Eurasia’ . The book
focuses on the main challenges emanating
from the debate that emerged during the process
of the 2011 revision of the ENP, including
the potential consequences of the uprisings
in the Mediterranean countries . The
main challenges for the EU will be to support
democratic transitions, to contribute to the
resolution of protracted conflicts in the area
and to progressively define the model of economic
co-development and integration of
the Pan-Euro-Mediterranean Area .

n reaction to the «fear of nation», which
is widely represented in most contemporary
political theory of liberalism and republicanism,
this book outlines the necessity
of including a national dimension in any
democratic theory capable of facing the challenges
of our time . The aim of the volume is
to offer the reader a new non-nationalist concept
of nation that is compatible with the
normative requirements of democracy . The
author considers a wide range of material in
order to overcome assumptions, concepts
and supposed evidence that have been uncritically
accepted and repeated since the
nineteenth century . The book includes a comprehensive
analysis of the intimate connection
between state and nation in the work of
