The Re-Emergence of Territorial Cleavage in Western European Politics

By Lucia Bonfreschi

In this essay, \ Bonfreschi and Maccaferri\ consider the concept of regionalismfrom a subnationalperspective rather than an internationalone, discussing the problem of how states deal with regions or smaller unities within the state. From this perspective regionalismis a notoriously imprecise term-used to describe everything from decentralization of political power via \ economic restructuring to the mobilization of subnational identities-but it is undeniable that starting from the 1960s western Europe has experienced a true and proper re-emergence of territorial cleavage.
