A distinguished team of Western European scholars has written an advanced, full-length physical geography designed to be a state-of -the-art evaluation of the physical environment of Western Europe, being both retrospective and prospective in its perception of environmental change. The unique natural and regional environments of Western Europe are discussed, as well as the physical geographic framework of the region. Particular emphasis is placed on the impact and responses of human society on the physical environment of the region which is characterized by a very high population density.

Het hedendaagse debat over de multiculturele samenleving richt zich vooral op de moslims onder de migranten, nieuwkomers die met hun afwijkende religie en cultuur de seculiere westerse samenleving zouden bedreigen. De centrale vraag in de studie van Leo Lucassen is of het integratieproces van deze nieuwe migrantengroepen op een andere manier zal verlopen dan dat van groepen die in het verleden naar West-Europa kwamen. Hij maakt daarbij een vergelijking tussen een aantal grote en 'problematische' groepen in het verleden (Ieren in Engeland, Polen in Duitsland en Italianen in Frankrijk) en enkele vergelijkbare groepen die in de meer recente geschiedenis naar West-Europa migreerden (Caribische migranten in Engeland, Turken in Duitsland en Algerijnen in Frankrijk). Lucassen schetst een aantal opvallende overeenkomsten in de manier waarop migranten en hun nakomelingen in de samenleving integreerden. Hoewel de omstandigheden in de tweede helft van de vorige eeuw sterk veranderden - met name op het terrein van de sociale voorzieningen en de transport- en communicatiemiddelen - verwacht Lucassen niet dat het integratieproces van recente migranten daardoor fundamenteel zal verschillen van dat van eerdere migrantengroepen.

La plupart des pays d'Europe occidentale se trouvent dans une phase de désenchantement. La religion est reléguée dans la sphère privée alors que la déliquescence des religions séculières engendre un désintérêt pour la politique. C'est l'aboutissement d'un processus de sécularisation engagé depuis les Lumières. Certes, le sabre et le goupillon ont pu de temps à autre faire alliance, mais c'est le politique qui en a tiré profit. En dépit de l'aggiornamento décidé par Vatican II, une partie de ceux qui s'étaient éloignés de l'Eglise se sont tournés vers des religions non traditionnelles (Témoins de Jéhovah, Scientologie, New Age...) ou exotiques (bouddhisme). La prolifération de mouvements dont le nombre d'adeptes demeure très limité et le développement de divers " bricolages " religieux ont fragilisé encore l'institution. Lâchée par de nombreux fidèles, contrainte d'évoluer dans des sociétés gagnées au pluralisme, l'Eglise est en voie de marginalisation. Ses tentatives pour réinvestir la sphère publique se heurtent à de vives résistances et le réenchantement religieux aperçu par certains semble plutôt marquer le pas.
