Georg von Goldbach: Europe Lost Her Sovereignty, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

CONTENT OF THE BOOK Human history does not proceed like a mechanical construct, the world is too complex for that. And yet a certain direction and consistency in historical development become visible to the attentive observer. Certain decisions made in 1919 by the victorious powers of the First World War led to a new World Order. If we wish to understand today's events, as well as the drivers of the actions of the political decision-makers, we need to know the principles that are shaping the decisions underpinning power and domination in this new World Order. This is the only way to recognize a structure in the supposed chaos around us. We want to serve this learning from history with our book. The insights gained ask us to take a close look each time, when political decisions are made. The consequences must be borne not only by us, but even more so by the future inhabitants of this planet. This book aims to use critical events to show how this process proceeded and what important results it has led to. The relationship between France and Germany after the Second World War and since the reunification of Germany and Europe after 1990 is the focus. We will show how the relationship between the two economically and politically most important states in Europe, with the EU as the decisive shaping framework, has developed. We are paying particular attention to the role of the United States as the actor that has decisively shaped the creation and shaping of the EU.
