Between Europe and the Mediterranean

THIERRY FABRE is at the University of Aix-Marseilles, France.

PAUL SANT CASSIA is Reader in the Department of Anthropology at the University of Durham, UK.

Historians, anthropologists, political scientists and demographers explore the principal challenges and fears characterizing relations between Europe and the Mediterranean. The contributors suggest that the greatest challenge facing our political generation is no longer forming a Europe without the Mediterranean, but with it.

Both of the editors are well known in the field
