Description

Distinguished German historians and journalists examine Germany's new position in Europe after unification in relation to its neighbouring states since 1871 and its role in furthering European integration since 1949. The authors ask: - Does Germany need a new foreign policy? Have her priorities changed in the light of the end of the Cold War? - Does Germany need to define her own national interests rather than identifying herself with the European Union? Contributors: G. Gillessen, G. Schollgen, J. Fest, J. Thies, J. Joffe, C. Bertram, H.-P. Schwarz

Reviews

'... a fine mixture of opinion, insight and awareness of contemporary international relations.' German Politics '... there are many interesting and intriguing ideas in the several chapters of this book that are worth pursuing further. The chapters are relatively brief, and they would serve individually or together as a good basis for discussion in a seminar setting.' Politik "There is much thought-provoking comment contained in the essays in this book" History
