Description

Arguing that the social integration of Western Europe already exists in an advanced form, Kaelble examines eight selected aspects of society: the European family; employment structures; big business; social mobility and education; social inequality in the class system; life in European cities; the rise of the welfare state; and industrial relations. Approaching a 'European history' rather than the traditional collection of national histories, his unique and challenging view of social development will interest not only historians but also sociologists and political scientists.

Description

Stealing a march on the E.E.C., Kaelbe (social history, Free U., Berlin) contends that European social integration is well advanced. He presents a European history, rather than a series of national histories, of such aspects of society as family, employment, business, class, and education. Translate
