"This provocative book takes the form of a dialogue between French
Foreign Minister Hubert Vedrine and international relations expert
Dominique Moisi. Vedrine expresses his frank views of the U.S.
""hyperpower,"" France's role in the world, Europe's future, the
current structure of the international system, and the role of
ethics in international affairs. Probing the historic, diplomatic
and cultural issues that unite and divide two historical allies,
the book give unique insights into French thinking about the world,
and France and America's respective roles in it. ""Like the French
satirical television show that twits the United States for being
the 'World Company' that invades peoples lives around the globe,
the French foreign minister, Hubert Vedrine, expresses frustration,
and perhaps a little envy, at America's dominion.... ""Since
becoming foreign minister three years ago, Mr. Vedrine, 53, a
lawyer and previously the senior foreign policy advisor to Francois
Mitterand when he was president, has made a priority of making
distinctions between France and the United States. That has left
senior American officials muttering more than usual about the
French."" --New York Times "
