Product Description
The Baltic's time has come. It is not only critical to Europe's security and increasingly a centre of political and military power in its own right; it is a reservoir of ideas and experiences that could shape the continent's future. The Baltic offers by far the most successful examples of the reintegration of Europe's old capitalist and communist blocs. It abounds in pioneering environmental initiatives, ranging from the world's first geological 'forever' storage facility for nuclear waste in Finland to its first 'zero waste' community, on the Danish island of Bornholm. Brutalised by the twentieth century, the rebounding economies of Poland, Finland and Estonia are case studies in the mobilisation of social resources and the transformative power of technology. This book explores the history, their culture, their peculiarities and national dilemmas of all nine Baltic countries.
