Описание:
The Arab-Israeli war of 1973, the first oil price shock, and France’s transition from Gaullist to centrist rule in 1974 coincided with the United States’ attempt to redefine transatlantic relations. As the author argues, this was an important moment in which the French political elite responded with an unprecedented effort to construct an internationally influential and internally cohesive European entity. Based on extensive multi-archival research, this study combines analysis of French policy making with an inquiry into the evolution of political language, highlighting the significance of the new concept of a political European identity.
Описание: Britain, France and Europe, 1945-1975 takes a fresh look at the international trajectories of Europe’s premier democracies. The side-lining of Britain and France in the Cold War era, argues Adamthwaite, was preventable. A Franco-British Europe came within a whisker of realization. Condemning President Charles de Gaulle as an intransigent gatekeeper created a convenient alibi for self-inflicted missteps. UK bids for European Community membership ignored the elephant in the room - the need for partnership in a superpower age. A marriage powering the Community could have repositioned Western Europe as partner, not client of the United States. Although perceived as a failing power, France outperformed Britain - seizing the initiative in European construction, and winning primacy in western Europe. As well as exploring sharply contrasting national experiences in the aftermath of war, the author analyses the reasons for French success. The analysis evaluates key influences: the mental maps of decision makers; leadership styles; the post-1945 international system; policy making machinery; the ‘democratic deficit’ in British and French politics; and public opinion.Drawing on American, British and French official records, together with private papers and interviews, this enlightening study highlights the importance of contingency and individual actors, and will be of great interest to scholars of modern European history.

Описание:
After World War II, France embarked on a project of modernization, which included the development of the modern mass home. At Home in Postwar France examines key groups of actors — state officials, architects, sociologists and tastemakers — arguing that modernizers looked to the home as a site for social engineering and nation-building; designers and advocates of the modern home contributed to the democratization of French society; and the French home of the Trente Glorieuses, as it was built and inhabited, was a hybrid product of architects’, planners’, and residents’ understandings of modernity. This volume identifies the “right to comfort” as an invention of the postwar period and suggests that the modern mass home played a vital role in shaping new expectations for well-being and happiness.

Описание:
Since 1963, the state of Israel has awarded the title of “Righteous among the Nations” to individuals who risked their lives sheltering Jews during the Holocaust. This distinction remained solely an Israeli initiative until the late 1990s, when European governments began developing their own national categories, the most prominent of which was the “Righteous of France,” honoring those who protected Jews during the Vichy regime. In National Policy, Global Memory, Sarah Gensburger uses this dramatic episode to lend a new perspective to debates over memory and nationhood. In particular, she works to combine two often divergent disciplines—memory studies and political science—to study “memory politics” as a form of public policy.

Описание: die Jahre 1963-1969 sind eine Schl sselperiode f r die Beziehungen zwischen Frankreich und Deutschland. Kaum war der lys e-Vertrag unterzeichnet, entbrannten Auseinandersetzungen zwischen Paris und Bonn, die die bilaterale Entente dauernd belasteten. Auf einer breiten Quellenbasis geht Carine Defrance der Hauptfrage nach, ob und weshalb die Unf higkeit beider L nder, zu einem Konsens ber gemeinschaftliche und internationale Schl sselfragen zu kommen, f r die Stagnation des europ ischen Einigungsprozesses in den Jahren 1963-1969 verantwortlich ist. Sie untersucht die dynamischen Wechselwirkungen zwischen Frankreich und Deutschland in Europa sowohl im gemeinschaftlichen als auch im internationalen Kontext der 1960er Jahre. Die Autorin arbeitet systematisch die Perspektiven, Motive, Aktionen und Reaktionen in den bilateralen Beziehungen heraus, um ihre Auswirkungen auf die europ ische Ebene aufzuzeigen. Damit hebt sie die deutsch-franz sischen Beziehungen aus der Betrachtung der nationalen Politik hervor und unterscheidet sich damit von bisherigen Arbeiten, die die Paris-Bonn-Achse entweder aus franz sischer oder deutscher Perspektive beleuchtet haben. ber die Analyse der bilateralen Zusammenarbeit hinaus ist dieses Buch ein wichtiger Beitrag zur Historiographie der europ ischen Integration, indem sie die Debatte um das Verh ltnis zwischen Bilateralismus und Multilateralismus und zwischen europ ischer Integration und Kaltem Krieg bereichert.
