Controversy surrounds the construction of postwar European
institutions. How far did the leaders of West European states
simply respond to American pressures and to cold war politics? Were
they motivated by federalist idealism, or by economic and
power-political factors? Why did states behave in different ways
towards the many new institutions created during the first fifteen
years after the end of the Second World War? These studies, by an
international team of historians, use newly released archival
material to examine the motivations of national political leaders
and their officials. Topics covered include French and British
military thinking about European and national defence; British and
French officials and their European integration policies; Italian,
Belgian and Dutch attitudes towards the politics of postwar
European integration; German decision-making elites in the 1950s;
Britain and the first attempt to join the EEC; and the covert
relationship between the USA and the European federalists.
