Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The history of the smaller European countries is rather neglected in the teaching of European history at university level. We are therefore pleased to announce the publication of the first comprehensive history of the Low Countries - in English - from Roman Times to the present. Remaining politically and culturally fragmented, with its inhabitants speaking Dutch, French, Frisian, and German, the Low Countries offer a fascinating picture of European history en miniature. For historical reasons, parts of northern France and western Germany also have to be included in the "Low Countries," a term that must remain both broad and fluid, a convenient label for a region which has seldom, if ever, composed a unified whole. In earlier ages it as even more difficult to the region set parameters, again reflecting Europe as a whole, when tribes and kingdoms stretched across expanses not limited to the present states of Belgium, Luxembourg, and the Netherlands. Nevertheless, its parts did demonstrate many common traits and similar developments that differentiated them from surrounding countries and lent them a distinct character. Internationally, the region often served both as a mediator for and a buffer to the surrounding great powers, France, Britain, and Germany; an important role still played today as Belgium and the Netherlands have increasingly become involved in the broader process of European integration, in which they often share the same interest and follow parallel policies. This highly illustrated volume serves as an ideal introduction to the rich history of the Low Countries for students and the generally interested reader alike.

Download or read book The Nordic Countries From War to Cold War 1944 51 written by Tony Insall and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2011-02-25 with total page 590 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a collection of diplomatic documents describing the development of British relations with the Nordic countries between the end of the Second World War and the defeat of the Labour Government in 1951. The end of the Second World War brought hopes of building a new society in Western Europe. This volume documents Foreign Office concerns about the range of problems, both multilateral and bilateral, which still remained to be resolved in the Nordic area, and describes the evolution of policies to deal with them. The Soviet Union, which in May 1945 already occupied parts of Norway and Denmark and dominated Finland, was perceived as a growing threat. The Nordic region was considered to be of significant strategic importance during this period. The documents describe the process whereby Britain attempted to encourage Scandinavian countries away from their support for neutrality and, by enlisting American support, began the process which led to the signature of the Atlantic Treaty in 1949, signed by Norway, Denmark and Iceland. They also include material describing the establishment of Information Research Department (formed to counteract Soviet propaganda) and illustrating some of its methods. Some documents not previously in the public domain have been declassified for this volume. Most are drawn from the archives of the Foreign and Commonwealth Office, but there are also a number of Prime Ministerial and Cabinet Office documents. This book will be of much interest to students of the Cold War, European history, British political history, international history and IR in general.

Download or read book Jean Monnet The First Statesman of Interdependence written by François Duchêne and published by Plunkett Lake Press. This book was released on 2022-08-10 with total page 499 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A brilliant biography of one of the pivotal and least likely creators of a new European world. Monnet’s career in international affairs began with his place on an Anglo-French supply mission to the United States in World War I, flourished in World War II, and had its lasting impact with the postwar Monnet plan for economic renewal in France and his push for Franco-German reconciliation through the Schuman Plan. Monnet had the most extraordinary links to people in power, especially in the United States. Self-effacing, operating usually without formal office and always without direct political ambition, he could effectively mobilize his connections to promote common institutions for a new ‘civilianized’ Europe. Duchêne, who worked with Monnet for ten years, has done vast archival research and illuminates Monnet’s career in its full historical context. More, he offers a comprehensive analysis of Monnet’s basic premises, aims, and inspired, dogged ways of pursuing and often achieving his goals. Duchêne is a splendid analyst and stylist with a gift for the elegant and incisive phrase. The book is long, but so was Monnet’s life. A great achievement.” — Fritz Stern, Foreign Affairs “[This] intelligently sympathetic but in no sense uncritical biography... shows how [Jean Monnet (1888-1979)] this conspirator in the public interest worked with and through others to create institutions from which European unity could grow.” — Jack Hayward, The New York Times “[A] first-rate biography of Monnet by a close collaborator-disciple.” — Max Beloff, The National Interest “In this absorbing, dramatic biography, Duchêne, an Economist correspondent and former aide to Monnet, closely reassesses the achievements of an ‘entrepreneur in the public interest.’ This long overdue biography brings him out of the shadows.” — Publishers Weekly “[T]he best available biography of the founder of modern European integration.” — George Ross, French Politics and Society “Duchêne, who worked with Monnet for the best part of a turbulent decade, provides a fascinating insight into [Monnet] the man, his working methods and the forces that drove him from one challenge to another. This highly-entertaining account of the [European] Union’s formative years is not only accessible to the general reader, but may also offer some much needed inspiration for the current generation of policy-makers.” — Politico “This wise, original and timely book should be read and pondered — not only by anyone interested in Jean Monnet, but also by everyone concerned with the European Union today. Based on personal knowledge, deep reflection and diligent research, it paints an honest, warts-and-all portrait of a quite extraordinary man.” — Richard Mayne, The World Today “[T]his excellent biography provides... an authoritative assessment of Monnet’s role at the centre of many great events, which all future historians will have to take into account.” — Roger Morgan, International Affairs “Duchêne, Monnet’s aide and a correspondent for The Economist, here sets out to chart the remarkable, if somewhat obscure, life of the architect of the European Community and also — a lesser-known fact — of America’s wartime munitions effort... Men like Monnet, according to Duchêne, were able to create the EEC because they were not politicians but enlightened technocrats — a breed with a bad name these days. As this book makes clear, however, technocrats can be a saving grace in periods of turmoil. This is not a very personal book... But it does reveal a complete and satisfying picture of a complex age of transition for Western Europe.” — Kirkus “[U]n travail sérieux et particulièrement honnête... Le mystère de [Jean Monnet] méritera encore de nombreuses recherches mais notre connaissance a progressé grâce à ce livre.” — Philippe Mioche, Politique étrangère

Download or read book One Hundred Years of History of the French Communist Party written by Roger Martelli and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-09-14 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Communist Party appeared a hundred years ago on the French political and social scene. According to opinions and moments, it has been the party of Moscow, of those shot, of the working class, of the union of the left, the party of the foreigner or that of the nation. It has been underground, in government, in town halls, in factories or in the streets. Some considered it too revolutionary, others not enough. More than others, it aroused passions, positive or negative. It attracted many and repelled just as many. After the fall of the USSR, it decided to remain a communist party, while many others gave it up. But it no longer has the place it once had, in reality as in the imagination. This book does not intend to judge, but to provide keys to understanding. It is based on a considerable number of archives that are now available and is an ordered and distanced look at an object that is not lacking in complexity and no doubt even in mystery. This book has been translated from French to English thanks to a financial help from the Gabriel Péri Foundation and the LIR3S UMR Cnrs 7366 of Dijon.

Download or read book Black France White Europe written by Emily Marker and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2022-10-15 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Black France, White Europe illuminates the deeply entangled history of European integration and African decolonization. Emily Marker maps the horizons of belonging in postwar France as leaders contemplated the inclusion of France's old African empire in the new Europe-in-the-making. European integration intensified longstanding structural contradictions of French colonial rule in Africa: Would Black Africans and Black African Muslims be French? If so, would they then also be European? What would that mean for republican France and united Europe more broadly? Marker examines these questions through the lens of youth, amid a surprising array of youth and education initiatives to stimulate imperial renewal and European integration from the ground up. She explores how education reforms and programs promoting solidarity between French and African youth collided with transnational efforts to make young people in Western Europe feel more European. She connects a particular postwar vision for European unity—which coded Europe as both white and raceless, Christian and secular—to crucial decisions about what should be taught in African classrooms and how many scholarships to provide young Africans to study and train in France. That vision of Europe also informed French responses to African student activism for racial and religious equality, which ultimately turned many young francophone Africans away from France irrevocably. Black France, White Europe shows that the interconnected history of colonial and European youth initiatives is key to explaining why, despite efforts to strengthen ties with its African colonies in the 1940s and 1950s, France became more European during those years.
