Summary:	The seven microstates of Europe, i.e. Andorra, Liechtenstein, Monaco, Malta, San Marino, Sovereign Order of St. John, and Vatican City are remarkable not only for their size, but their persistence. It is a sociopolitical phenomenon that has rarely been addressed, but The Microstates of Europe: Designer Nations in a Post-Modern World shows how it may have clues for the larger understanding of the conflicting agencies of nationalism and globalism currently seen around the world.
