Beziehungen Und Identiteaten

The principal themes of the volume are questions of identity in Austria and Switzerland, as well as relationships between both these countries and Ireland. This volume contains selected contributions to the 3rd Limerick conference in Irish-German Studies (4-6 April 2002). The contributors, collectively and individually, explore and analyse distinctive European mentalities as well as their connections, and evolution, over time. The three countries share the experience of hugely influential and at times overpowering neighbours, neutrality in foreign policy, and links at many levels that reach far into the past.
