The Problem of the Underdeveloped Regions in Southeast Europe: A Comparative Analysis of Romania, Yugoslavia, and Greece
The three countries of Southeast Europe approach the problem of a balanced economic development from a long history of foreign domination which created great regional disproportions. Today these three countries have different ideologies, but the solutions to their regional imbalances are handled with strikingly similar tools: massive investments to encourage industrialization and diversification of their economies. This study compares their probl…
Europe's Steppe Frontier, 1500-1800
In Europe's Steppe Frontier, acclaimed historian William H. McNeill analyzes the process whereby the thinly occupied grasslands of southeastern Europe were incorporated into three great empires: the Ottoman, the Austrian, and the Russian. McNeill benefits from a New World detachment from the bitter nationality quarrels of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries which inspired but also blinded most of the historians of the region. Moreov…
Transformation of Rural Settlement in Bulgaria
B ULGARIA is a typical transit country, with a history characterized by the movements and conquests of many peoples. Their marks are visible everywhere, in the form of pagan temples, pre-Christian tombstones, old weathered coins, Thracian tumuli, Roman roads and baths, Byzantine fortress walls, churches, and early frescoes, medieval Bulgarian castles, and, finally, Turkish mosques. All these testify to the importance of the region. In spite of it…

A Geography of Europe
The Survival of an Independent Austria
HE important role of Austria in the economic and political development of Europe remains unchanged even by war and a divided continent. Unfortunately, her location in one of Europe's most strategic areas (Fig. i), which no power is willing to have dominated by another power, robs the country of her right to determine her own future. But the experience of the last I3 years has, it is hoped, given the Austrian people a raison d'etre for their count…
Austria: Her Raw Materials and Industrial Potentialities
in the center of Europe, it is surrounded by seven countries and is on the crossroad between the North (Germany, Czechoslovakia, Poland) and the South (Italy and Yugoslavia), the East and the West. Austria's total boundary is 1600 miles; its total length is 360 miles and its width, 183 miles.
