Bibliography
Index
Dr Eve Hepburn is Leverhulme Fellow at the School of Social and Political Science, University of Edinburgh
"While there is a rich literature on the positioning of national
political parties on European issues, the specific challenges and
opportunities that European integration presents for regional
political parties have been less thoroughly explored. Eve Hepburn's
monograph on territorial party strategies seeks to fill this
gap."
"The strength of the book is clearly in its strong empirical focus
and research design, which allows Hepburn to compare party
strategies not only across regions, but also over an extended time
span."
"The author should be commended for expanding the empirical scope
of her study to include all regional parties, and not just minority
nationalist actors as have featured in scholarly work on regional
party attitudes towards Europe hitherto."
"the book will undoubtedly become required reading for a broad
community of scholars."
the book offers a good theoretical framework
