Places and Regions - Links


Having read and thought about Lopez's argument in the Discussion Forum, consider the following map of devolutionary forces in Europe (Fig. 1). You can click on some of these regions to find links to the Web sites of local regionalist political movements.

Please click on the four markers below to view examples of regionalist political movements on the Web.

Now, conduct a Web search for other sites (not necessarily regionalist political movements) that further the cause of local or regional identity asserting itself within an increasingly global society.
