BELGIUM - BERNARD A COOK KARTONIERT (TB)

Although Belgium has only been an independent state since the 1830s  it has a long and complex
past. This history is essential for understanding the complexities of issues that led to a
devolution of the unitary Belgian state into a federation of linguistically based regions. In
addition to the elements that contributed to Belgium's particular political evolution  the
history which is traced in this book is a composite of many themes of broad historical interest
and importance. Belgium: A History covers the gamut of Belgian history through dramas of
religious and cultural conflict  intense localism  state building  uneven development 
divergent class interests  war and domination  and finally  integration into a larger European
community.
