Description
(Text)
This introduction is intended to provide an orientation which allows further work and deeper critical examination by the reader. The individual chapters emphasize the parallels and differences between France and Germany, for the peculiarities and characteristics of the countries to clearly emerge. Within this comparison, however, contemporary France remains always at the centre. From case to case historical developments are also considered. Another focal point is the role played by France and Germany in the European integration.
(Review)
"Mr Große and Mr Lüger have produced an excellent and really commendable book. ø...! I feel inclined to characterise this as one of the most successful books of its kind I have seen." (Jacob Kornbeck, Europe Plurilingue)
"...the book must be considered an important and ground-breaking work in European studies. Its straightforward, meticulous style provides students of Europe, particularly France and Germany, invaluable information concerning these two important, if not most crucial, European nations today." (Gary Anderson, German Politics)
