内容説明

Part 1 of this book synthesizes in chapter 1 the specific characteristics of Southern Europe and gives an overview of the theses presented for consideration. The second chapter deals with foreign politics and the international collocation of the countries under study, as these two factors have had great historical influence. In part 2 of the book, the central theme is the social implications of economic growth. Chapter 3 covers emigration and return migration. This is possibly the most significant social aspect of the central theme. Chapter 4 is devoted to the enormous changes in the rural societies of Southern Europe. The central theme of chapter 5 is an investigation of the various roads to industrialization which covers economic growth and the advent of capitalist markets. Chapter 6 is an analysis of the effects of capitalist markets, and the relation between economy and society, defined as induced capitalism, which developed in the countries of Southern Europe. The specific socio-economic formation of the area is derived from the inter-twining of tradition and modernity with capitalist forms of production and forms of pre-modern social reproduction. Part 3 deals with an analysis of the political society expressed by the specific socio-economic aspects of the area. Chapter 7 presents the neo-caciquist model as the key to understanding the links between strong clientship, low political institutionalization and weak parties which exist in these countries. Chapter 8 presents an analysis of the various Southern European dictatorships. The analysis covers the differences in their growth, their development and the various reasons for their collapse, and reaches the conclusion that the consolidation of democracy was atypical. Chapter 9 discusses the rapidity with which ideological polarization was overcome and democracy was learnt in these countries until the end of the 1980s. The fourth, and concluding, part of the book examines the unsolved problems which reveal the process of modernization without development which is common to the whole area. This process is seen in the lack of relationship between economic growth and political institutionalization.

内容説明

Until relatively recently most of southern Europe was governed by authoritarian dictatorships, but within the space of two decades more or less stable democracies have become established throughout the entire region. At the same time, backward peasant economies have been transformed by the injection of huge amounts of capital and new technology, into modern economies which are now approaching the size of the more established economies of Northern Europe. Southern Europe is a major contribution to our understanding of European politics. The product of original research and synthesis on exceptionally wide literature, it provides authoritative and systematic coverage of the politics, economics and society of this important region of Europe from 1945, up to the 1994 election of Silvio Berlusconi's far right alliance in Italy.
