Description
Under the direction of William Paterson, in collaboration with David Spence of the EC Commission, this book brings together six experts on aspects of German unification, and aims to provide an authoritative account of the integration of East and West Germany. The volume covers: the historical background to unification; the process of unification itself; German unification and European unification; the economics of unification; unification and the international dimension; the constitutional implications of unification; unification and Eastern Europe; and the prospects for Germany and for Europe. This should be a useful guide for all students and teachers of German and European politics and history. It should also be of interest to general readers concerned by developments in Germany today.
