Example text

Some argue that now is the time that Europe is facing a break with the Westphalian principle for organizing political space based on state sovereignty and considerable overlap between political, legal, administrative, economic, social and cultural boundaries. European integration is seen to have a potential to provide a ‘pathway for leading mankind out of the era of the nation state’ (Deutsch 1968: 191). We may be entering ‘a new stage in the history of the Western European states’ (Wessels 1996: 58) and there may be ‘a new large-scale territorial diVerentiation characterized by the progressive lowering of internal boundaries and the slow rising of external new boundaries’ (Bartolini 1998: 48).

Their boundary-scanning functions provide them with information others do not have and they play a key role in interpreting what the external world is willing to accept and therefore what is politically possible. In contrast, if diVerent parts of a component entity are integrated into diVerent task environments, external units or networks, strain is put upon the component entity’s ability to continue as a unitary and coherent cooperative eVort, resulting in diVerentiated attention and exposure to information among subgroups.

G. a feeling of belonging and human bonding, trust and loyalty, is seen as hindering the mechanism of free exchanges. Therefore, integration into a market order will in particular provide a challenge to advantaged districts, social groups, industries and others whose rights or privileges have been protected by solidarity and the acceptance of political redistribution in the smaller unit. Collision can, however, also be caused by the smaller entity’s willingness to accept majority rule, government intervention and redistribution in the smaller and more homogeneous unit, but not within a larger and more heterogeneous entity.
