First published in 1969, European Advanced Technology expounds a
programme of action for Europe to tackle the challenge posed by
American technology in the 1960s. It analyses first the nature of
the American predominance in science and technology and goes onto
describe the efforts of the major European states to counter it on
their own. It then explains the limitations of these efforts at the
level of the nation state and shows how European countries have
gone on to work together in certain key sectors: high energy
physics, nuclear power, aircraft, space, electronics, transport and
communications. The history of these programmes is examined
carefully and the book describes a wider strategy. It deals with
larger questions like how Europe can develop a common science and
technology policy; what should be done to promote industrial
integration and European companies, and what individual companies
and the British government can and should do? This book will be an
essential read for scholars and researchers interested in the
history of European Union, European history, international
organisations and European Politics.
