The progressive enlargement of the EU has positioned its borders at the heart of recent discussions on the changing nature of the EU, the meaning of 'Europe' and what constitutional shape a more politically unified Europe might take. With enlargement, the EU must elaborate strategies to contend with a fiercely competitive world - and to build fortress-like defences against perceived tensions arising from greater cultural mixing and threats such as terrorism. The authors build up an integral picture of the EU's internal and external borders and borderlands to reveal the processes of re-bordering and social change currently taking place in Europe. They explore issues such as security, immigration, economic development and changing social and political attitudes, as well as the EU's relations with the Islamic world and other world powers. 4aEuropean federation 4aGeopolitics - European Union Countries a11380/MKRI-P/XII-2008 a11381/MKRI-P/XII-2008 a11381/MKRI-P/XII-2008 a11380/MKRI-P/XII-2008 a11380/MKRI-P/XII-2008 a11381/MKRI-P/XII-2008
