France, Germany and Britain: Partners in a Changing World explores the relationships, and the potential for closer co-operation, that exist between France, Germany, and Britain as they enter the new millennium. It focuses on a wide range of domains in which the three partner countries interact—including financial and monetary integration, economic and industrial co-operation, politics, security and defense, business and corporate governance, and education. Given the change in government that each of these countries underwent in 1997-1998, given too the apparent willingness of New Labour to assume a more central role on the European stage, the time is ripe to reassess the relationships between France, Germany, and Britain as we enter the 21st century.
