France and the Reunification of Germany

Mehr zum Buch

The book explores the complex dynamics surrounding Germany's reunification after the Soviet Union's collapse, challenging the notion that French President François Mitterrand opposed this historic event. Instead, it reveals Mitterrand's primary focus was ensuring that a reunified Germany was integrated into a cohesive Europe, highlighting his strategic vision for stability in the region rather than a reaction to historical enmity. This perspective offers a nuanced understanding of Franco-German relations during a pivotal moment in modern European history.
