We must be aware of the fact that in West European advanced societies the movement of regionalism has become salient since the late 1960s, and that these movements have spilled over into demands for the ethnic minority and protests against the political centers. French movements are particularly a case in point. They are characterized as regionally based protests against political regimes within which both nation-states and European Community are predominant as actors.Here an important question is posed: Can integration theories make clear the substance of these movement dynamics? The purpose of this article is, therefore, to attempt to answer why existing integration theories could not well analyze the problem of regional protests. The weakness of integration theories is in too much emphasis on the logic of fucntionalism. What regionalism in France indicates is possibly that national, subnational (or regional), and transnational interests are not complementary but competitive in integration dynamics. Integrationists tend to assume that the complementary scheme is correct. However, the reality is often not so. Why? The reason is that the EC integration is nothing more than the technocratic integration in nature. This has led to a variety of center-periphery gaps. Hence we will discuss the negative effect of the EC integration on domestic politics of member countries, especially focusing on the French case.
