  • - Political Protest and Ethno-Nationalist Mobilization in France
    by Jens Rydgren
    £97.49

  • by Frederic Bozo
    £83.99

    Twenty years after the fall of the Berlin Wall, this important book explores the role of France in the events leading up to the end of the Cold War and German unification. Most accounts concentrate on the role of the United States and look at these events through the bipolar prism of Soviet-American relations.

  • - The Geopolitical Imperative
    by Michael Sutton
    £24.99 - 83.99

    In the second half of the twentieth century France played the greatest role - even greater than Germany's - in shaping what eventually became the European Union. By the early twenty-first century, however, in a hugely transformed Europe, this era had patently come to an end. This comprehensive history shows how France coupled the pursuit of power and the furtherance of European integration over a sixty-year period, from the close of the Second World War to the hesitation caused by the French electorate's referendum rejection of the European Union's constitutional treaty in 2005.

  • - France, the United States, and the Oil Shock, 1973-74
    by Aurelie Elisa Gfeller
    £24.99 - 97.49

    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.

  • - Technicians, Culure and Politics from the 1920s to Vichy
    by Jackie Clarke
    £97.49

    In interwar France, there was a growing sense that organizationA" was the solution to the nation's perceived social, economic and political ills. This book examines the roots of this idea in the industrial rationalization movement and its manifestations in areas as diverse as domestic organization and economic planning.
