Reviews

This remarkable book, covering a half century of Franco-German relations and European politics, reminds us that the obstacles faced by the two neighbors at the signing of the Elysee Treaty-and at various junctures since-while different, were no less politically momentous and historically significant than the challenges France and Germany encounter today. Gunther Nonnenmacher, Editor, Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung [A] stimulating study ... this significant work provokes reflection, and marks a valuable step forward in the study of the EU. Roger Morgan, Times Higher Education ...Should [be] of great interest to scholars of European integration and International Relations... [A]n excellent book, which will become the new standard text for students of Franco-German relations. Alister Miskimmon, International Affairs [A] precise and comprehensive panorama of the past half century of Franco-German tandem. Thomas Raineau, Journal of Common Market Studies ... Ulrich Krotz and Joachim Schild have provided all students of European and international politics with a special gift-a theoretically highly original, empirically rich, and historically informed analysis of Europe's most important relationship. This splendid book invites us to explore embedded bilateralism as a distinctive type of international relations. The rewards are fully commensurate with the political occasion this book marks. Peter J. Katzenstein, Walter S. Carpenter, Jr. Professor of International Studies, Cornell University
