Some scholars have argued that the only way to resolve the Euro crisis would be to further deepen the integration process by institutionalising a European welfare state. This article examines whether a Europeanised welfare system would be supported by citizens of three member states of the EU. The authors argue that the legitimacy of a harmonisation of national welfare regimes would be established if a majority of citizens supported a Europeanised social policy. Using survey data from Germany, Poland and Spain, descriptive findings show that indeed a majority supports the idea of Europeanisation of social policy. Further, multivariate analyses show that those respondents who reject Europeanisation of social policy cannot be characterised to any significant extent in terms of socio-economic factors, and are only slightly more likely to be associated with cultural factors. The cleavages that structure people’s attitudes are thus relatively weak. The authors conclude that the potential for political mobilisation against Europeanisation of social policy in the three countries under investigation is rather low. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Since the fall of communism, Bulgaria managed to consolidate a democratic political system, with a stable parliament, an active civil society and media free from political influence. A series of presidential, parliamentary and local elections took place in this period; these elections were free, correct and without major problems. Considerable progresses have been made in applying the principles of the rule of law, but there are still many efforts to be made in this direction. The main goal of this article is to highlight Bulgaria's way of facing transition and overcoming this complex process. In addition to that, this analysis emphasizes some aspects of this country's recent political evolutions, with an accent on the electoral process, which speeded the acquirement of a much desired statute: consolidated democracy.

PESCHEL K. (1992) European integration and regional development in Northern Europe, Reg. Studies 26, 387–397. Attention is directed to the spatial effects of ongoing West European integration, the unification of Germany and the possible westorientation of East Europe. The effects of Western European integration can be judged by theoretical reasoning and empirical knowledge about regional development trends in the past. Statements concerning the effects of German reunification have to be based on experiences of regional restructuring in Germany during the 1980s. Insights into the possible integration of Eastern and Western European economies are obtained by applying the results of models, developed to explain the spatial structure of international trade. PESCHEL K. (1992) l'intégration européenne et le dévelopement régional dans l'Europe du Nord, Reg. Studies 26, 387–397. On considère les effets économiques et géographiques de l'intégration ouest-européenne en vigueur, l'unification de l'Allemagne et la possibilité de l'ouverture occidentale de l'Europe de l'Est. Les retombées de l'intégration ouesteuropéenne peuvent être évaluées à partir d'un raisonnement théorique et des connaissances empiriques à propos des tendances antérieures relatives à l'aménagement du territoire. Les déclarations concernant les effets de la réunification allemande doivent être fondées sur des expériences de restructuration régionale en Allemagne au cours des années '80. Appliquer les résultats des modéles conçu afin d'expliquer la structure géographique des échanges internationaux permet une pénération dans l'intégration éventuelle des économies de l'est et de l'ouest. PESCHEI K (1992) Europäische Integration und regionale Entwicklung in Nordeuropa, Reg. Studies 26, 387–397. Die Aufmerksamkeit wird auf die räumlichen Auswirkungen der fortschreitenden Integration Westeuropas, die Vereinigung Deutschlands und die mögliche Ausrichtung Osteuropas nach Westen gelenkt. Die Folgen der westeuropäischen Integration können anhand theoretischer Überlegungen und auf Erfahrung aufbauender Kenntnis früherer Tendenzen regionaler Entwicklung beurteilt werden. Festellungen über die Folgen der deutschen Wiedervereinigung müssen auf Erfahrungen bei der regionalen Umstrukturierung in Deutschland in den achtziger Jahren aufbauen. Einblicke in die mögliche Integration der osteuropäischen Wirtschaften in die westeuropäischen werden durch Anwendung der Ergebnisse von zur Erklärung der räumlichen Struktur des internationalen Handels entwickelten Modellen gewonnen.
