Chapter 10 in The European Community after 1992, 1992, pp 192-213 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract In an age often dominated by statistics it is perhaps fitting that the fate of nations can be characterized increasingly as a regression toward the mean. In Western Europe, economic integration has brought many long-established adversaries to an ever-closer European community; Australia and New Zealand have established closer economic ties; and Canada and the United States have a new Free Trade Agreement. In Eastern Europe, however, economic distintegration has characterized not only the individual socialist economies, but also the ties which have bound different groups to a particular national identity. From the Soviet “Union” to Yugoslavia and Czechoslovakia, there are pressures tending to a fragment the existing nation and its alliances. In Canada, too, there is a sense of impending separation; Quebec is at risk of leaving the other provinces.
