Germany, civilian power, and the new Europe

"In 1990, the future of Europe's international politics hinged on two questions. How would unification affect the conduct of German foreign policy?; and Would those institutions that had given security and prosperity to Western Europe during the Cold War now do the same for the entire continent, and if so, how?". "The intersection of these questions is the topic of this book. Germany, Civilian Power, and the New Europe explores the value and interests that shaped German politics within the enlargement of NATO and the European Union. Integrating its conceptual and empirical strands subtly and elegantly, it illustrates the reason for the overall continuity of German foreign policy after unification. It recounts how German policy-makers were drawn in different directions by their new Eastern priorities and old Western interests. This book is essential for those who want to know what happened in Europe in the 1990s."--BOOK JACKET.
