Full textThis thesis analyzes key variables and processes in France, the United Kingdom, and the Federal Republic of Germany in an attempt to determine the factors unique to each nation that tend to inhibit or promote movement toward integration of the European arms industries. For the purposes of this study it is assumed that defense production costs will be constantly increasing, while a variety of other global factors continue to produce a smaller arms market and increased competition among suppliers. With these factors known, the political, military, and economic roles of national arms industries are isolated as potential indicators of future integration in Europe and the significance of a joint venture involving any of these nations may be judged with greater confidence.

Full textOur research aim to explain why it took twenty-five years to France to ratify the ECHR, even though France was one of the ECHR founding countries. We even had to wait until 1981, to see the individual petitions authorized in France. There are several factors to take into account.First, domestic politics are important. Under the Fourth Republic, colonial issues and then freedom of education are preventing France to ratify the Convention. Then, there are the Algerian war which completely block any possibility of ratification. After 1958, de Gaulle is the Président and his vision of justice and Europe are not compatible with the ECHR, therefore, the ratification is once more postpone, even though jurists and politicians are mobilized. Finally, at the beginning of the 1970s, Pompidou is more open to European ideas and he needs to make an alliance with the centrists. After a long mobilisation, led by René Cassin, the ECHR is ratify in 1974, with reserves and without individual right to petition. We have to wait until 1981, and François Mitterrand to see this right recognized. During this period, we have to emphasize the role of various actors who mobilized in favor of the ratification.In parallel to these political evolutions, the background changed between 1950 and 1970, and led to an easier acceptance of the ideas at the heart of the ECHR. First of all, judicial review is more and more accepted in France by both jurists and politicians. This review questioned the french legicentrism and make the acceptance of a conventional control easier. During the same period, a European Law is created by the European court of justice, which led to a better familiarity (not yet acceptance) with the possibility of having internal law influenced by an external one.The work of the European Commission of Human Rights and the European Court, is also instrumental into the acceptation of the ECHR. Their jurisprudence, in this period, takes into account the reluctance of the Member-States to see an external body judge their law, therefore, the ECHR doesn't seem to be menacing. Finally, we see the rise of Human Rights during this period, starting in the 1960s. Human Rights became in the 1970s a central issue in domestic and foreign affairs, medias and public society took an interest in their defense. It became central in politics. All these factors show an evolution of the mainstream ideas which led to an easier acceptation of the ECHR, even though there are not directly linked
Agné, Hans. "Democracy Reconsidered : Britain, France, Sweden, and the EU." Doctoral thesis, Stockholm University, Department of Political Science, 2004. http://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:su:diva-264.
Full textThe purpose of this thesis is to investigate whether some positions in democratic theory should be adjusted or abandoned in view of internationalisation; and if adjusted, how. More specifically it pursues three different aims: to evaluate various attempts to explain levels of democracy as consequences of internationalisation; to investigate whether the taking into account of internationalisation reveals any reason to reconsider what democracy is or means; and to suggest normative interpretations that cohere with the adjustments of conceptual and explanatory democratic theory made in the course of meeting the other two aims.
When empirical methods are used, the scope of the study is restricted to West European parliamentary democracies and their international affairs. More particularly, the focus is on the making of budget policy in Britain, France, and Sweden after the Second World War, and recent budget policy in the European Union. The aspects of democracy empirically analysed are political autonomy, participation, and deliberation. The material considered includes parliamentary debates, official statistics, economic forecasts, elections manifestos, shadow budgets, general election turnouts, regulations of budget decision-making, and staff numbers in government and parliament budgetary divisions.
The study reaches the following conclusions among others. (i) The fact that internationalisation increases the divergence between those who make and those who are affected by decisions is not by itself a democratic problem that calls for political reform. (ii) That international organisations may have authorities delegated to them from democratic states is not sufficient to justify them democratically. Democratisation still needs to be undertaken. (iii) The fear that internationalisation dissolves a social trust necessary for political deliberation within nations seems to be unwarranted. If anything, views argued by others in domestic budgetary debate are taken increasingly serious during internationalisation. (iv) The major difficulty with deliberation seems to be its inability to transcend national boundaries. International deliberation at state level has not evolved in response to internationalisation and it is undeveloped in international institutions. (v) Democratic political autonomy diminishes during internationalisation with regard to income redistribution and policy areas taken over by international organisations, but it seems to increase in public spending. (vi) In the area of budget policy-making there are no signs that governments gain power at the expense of parliaments during internationalisation. (vii) To identify crucial democratic issues in a time of internationalisation and to make room for theoretical virtues like general applicability and normative fruitfulness, democracy may be defined as a kind of politics where as many as possible decide as much as possible.

Full textThe European Union integration policy offers new opportunities for its citizens in the community labour market. Nevertheless, despite all EU strategies to achieve it, resistance to European integration is inevitable. It is important to ask the question of whether or not problems concerning EU integration can be solved during current crises in Europe. One of the most important reasons for resistance to integration may be due to the way different EU member state populations perceive one another in a social context. The stereotype of the "Polish plumber", one that was widely propagated by the French media, gives us one such example. This symbol of social dumping appeared first in France in 2005, just before the referendum on EU Constitution. Behind this depiction, is the western EU’s anxiety of mass immigration from EU Central and Eastern European member states. Here it is important to closely examine the European immigrants and whether or not the societal portrayal of them has had an effect on their societal integration in France today. We focus on the obstacles of the European integration. The purpose of this research is particularly to study social representations and their impact on social practices, which distinguish our analysis from other migration and integration studies. The worker’s own perception of himself within French society should be taken into consideration as a response to the supranational structure of the European Union. The focus of this research will be placed on Polish immigrants in France who are entirely employed in low-skilled labour and the stereotypes they currently face. The stereotypes of Polish workers in France are then tabled and analysed in order to better understand the impact certain stereotypes and depictions have on the process of integration into French society. This research will also identify the societal consequences that certain EU policies have had as well on integration. The research involves three different approaches in order to understand the power of social representations and their impact on the integration process: a Polish worker and the Polish social circle in France, a Polish worker and the French society and a Polish worker and the European Union. Our analysis identifies two crucial points: the European market and the borders opening caused the Polish workers’ consciousness changing towards the emergence of a sense of equality and freedom; the possibility of choice allows the Polish immigrant to construct a project for the future, in France or in Poland, which determines the motivation to adapt and to integrate into the host society

Full textThe literature on employment policies has mainly focused on national variables in order to explain change. This research studies the degree of openness of national boundaries in a European context. By adopting an interactionist approach of Europeanization, it first explains how European institutions have defined a model of flexicurity that combines flexibility on the labor markets and security for the workers, whereas these two characteristics have long been considered incompatible. Then the research compares the recent evolution of two social protection systems that did not fit with the flexicurity framework and have nevertheless implemented employment policy reforms in line with European requirements. To explain the link between European demands and national reforms, this research underlines two mechanisms. First, it shows that national spheres are embedded in a broader context that strengthens the competition between welfare models but has a different impact on national spheres (the “national delay issue” in Portugal and the “specificities of the French model” in France). Then, in both cases, the political and administrative actors have tried to depoliticize policy reforms by mobilizing academic expertise. The different modalities of expert interventions crucially influence trade unions’ capacities to participate in the framing of national reforms. All in all, the thesis shows that national boundaries are challenged but have not disappeared. Even though it becomes difficult for them to act independently, national political leaders tend to develop strategies to preserve their autonomy

Full textThe thesis compares EU practice and discourse on the role of parliaments in the EU across time, in the Assemblée nationale and the Bundestag. The thesis brings to light the presence of a European Integration Paradox: Members of Parliaments’ rising experience in EU participation has led to an increasing importance of domestic roles for MPs’ ‘word and deed’ in EU affairs. EU practice is analysed through ‘thick description,’ which is based on primary and secondary interview evidence with current and historical parliamentary actors as well as the study of documents and secondary literature. Assessments of discourse on the role of parliaments are conducted through a systematic deductive-inductive analysis of debates on selected EU treaty changes. This thesis argues that neo-institutionalisms currently prevalent in EU studies are inadequate for understanding the institutionalisation processes at work in national parliaments with increasing EU legislation. Integrating elements of practice theory, of the social-constructivists Peter L. Berger and Thomas Luckmann and the ‘old’ institutionalism of Max Weber, the observations can be interpreted as change of ‘motives’ of discursive action of the actors. With rising experience of ‘doing EU’, Members of Parliament evaluate the role of parliaments in the EU less on the basis of a priori considerations but depending of their day-to-day parliamentary practice

Full textThe current European sovereign debts crisis is a good opportunity to observe the brand new balance of powers between national public authorities and financial markets. Both an actor and an arbitrator of the interaction between market forces, the State is increasingly following a competitive, liberal and internationalist approach to regulation that threatens its ability to remain the main source of enactment of financial rules. In a context of globalization and empowerment of the financial sphere, and under the economic imperatives of efficiency and competitiveness, the very notion of "French financial law" is losing its significance. The recent and impressive strengthening of the European financial legislation, the systematic importation of Anglo-American legal solutions, as well as the increasing delegation of the law-making to experts, all contribute to threaten the survival of a truly French financial law, distinct from other national regulations. Clearly, financial regulation is on the verge of a new international scaling to sustain the integration of financial markets and adapt to their regional, not to say global, dimension. More broadly, the modern methods of financial law-making tend to discredit the State as a relevant source to enact financial rules, themselves increasingly precise, expert and adaptive, while still quite political. Such is the key dilemma of modern financial regulation, bound to reconcile economic relevance and democratic legitimacy

Full textOur research regarding three francophone european countries (Belgium, France and Switzerland) shows first that there are significant differences in terms of immigration and integration policy. At the European level we notice a greater control of migration, actions against illegal immigration and the restriction of asylum applications while building a European action centered around the question of the social integration of migrant populations hardly takes place. We focused then our attention on the implementation of these policies through training schemes and skills evaluation of migrants learners. The training devices implemented in each country are primarily designed according to national specificities and national history. Thus, a detailed examination of the measures taken in the three francophone countries show opposite interpretations of the equation 'language , immigration, integration'. Our study brings out two opposite designs : on one side, a design focused on the linguistic integration of migrants and their individual efforts to achieve 'language mastery' set by the host country and on the opposite a design focused on social integration centered around a social long-term process with the strong commitment of the host country. Finally, the third microsociological component, through an action research around the implementation of a language portfolio, has revealed the teachers 'difficulties of adapting their teaching methods and learners' traditional views regarding language learning

Full textAfter the Second World War, France witnessed major changes in policymakers’ vision of the country’s future and of French interests and aims. French decision-makers thus sought to strengthen links between the French metropole and its colonies in order to reassess its imperial identity, which was founded on republican principles. This new identity had a significant influence on how interests within the international system and particularly in Europe were pursued. Pro-European projects were therefore analyzed through the lens of an Imperial Power. Accordingly, this thesis argues that French leaders questioned the international relations framework based on the nation-state as the central entity of the international system. French officials and policy-makers promoted a federal Eurafrican project to avoid the process of decolonization and create a political structure that would defuse colonial issues. The French decision makers pushed the overseas territories to transcend the stage of nationalism to reach an advanced statehood model: a post-Westphalian stage in which their demands for total independence would be obsolete

Full textThis study deals with the monetary policy of the Banque de France and the Deutsche Bundesbank during the 1970s, a period that saw the breakdown of the Bretton Woods system, the oil price crisis and the emergence of the European Monetary System. It examines the interrelations and interactions between these global developments and the monetary policy of the French and German central banks.Two trends stood out. Firstly, both institutions reacted differently to the changes in the international monetary regime. The Bundesbank experienced the dollar crises between 1971 and 1973 as the defining shock that led it to alter its monetary policy strategy. It broke away from fixed exchange rates, introduced the policy of monetary targeting and was thus able to curb inflation. The Bundesbank subsequently became a stabilizing force in a volatile monetary environment. For the Banque de France, by contrast, it was rather the oil crisis in 1973/1974 that marked the watershed. Being confronted with rising inflation and external deficits, the Banque called its monetary policy into question. In consequence, it adopted price stability and a sound external balance as primary goals.Apart from these diverging tendencies, there was, secondly, a trend towards convergence. European monetary integration created shared structures and common goals. Moreover, the monetary crises of the 1970s were not only signs of stagnation. They also led to a greater understanding and similar views between the two central banks. A consensus emerged over the course of the decade. The Bundesbank and Banque de France found common ground and thus laid the foundation for a future European monetary union

Full textAll over the world, the interests of people working abroad are at once unknown and disputed. The purpose of this study is to identify the lines of force behind, not without contradictions crisis or protect these people. Based on French and Cameroon law ( domestic and international ), the thesis seeks to demonstrate that, despite their belonging to different geographical areas and whatever their level of economic development, states provide legal treatment similar to migrants who are gainfully employed in their territory. The overall approach of taking into account the legal status of migrant workers is characterized by the gap between normative strengthening protection on the one hand and limited effectiveness thereof other. At first, strengthening of the law is deduced firstly from the diversity of legal rules applicable to migrant workers and the dynamics of interactions between them. Second, the strengthening of protection results with a capacity of enjoyment and exercise of rights by migrant workers more scope and a balancing (vertical or horizontal) rather harmonious recognized rights. In a second step, this normative consolidation of protection of migrant workers sentence to assert the facts. This is primarily due to the fact that the mechanisms of implementation of the rights of migrant workers are relatively unsatisfactory and that the actors involved in this protection are unequallyinvolved. The finding of limited effectiveness of the protection of migrant workers also stems from the diversity of obstacles to realizing the rights of migrant workers and to consider reforms in the context of a greater consideration of the rights of this category of people. In short, the study is a particularly current assessment of strengths and weaknesses of the law in both countries, so far as is concerned to safeguard the interests of this vulnerable category of people that are migrant workers. It helps to reaffirm the legal equality of individuals facing the screaming economic inequality states. This leads to the conclusion that in the field of protection of human, all states are, to varying degrees, on a training ground. That is,if the law itself is an ongoing issue for the protection of human rights in general and migrant workers in particular

Full textCriminal law gives rise to distinctions between aliens and nationals, the former being subjected to specific criminalization. But the relevance of this criminalization may be questioned, considering the balance sought by criminal law between distinction and assimilation.First, the study demonstrates that the different distinctions provided by criminal law may be challenged. On one hand, criminalization that applies to every alien is not convenient since it appears non-essential – when criminal law overlaps already sufficient extra-criminal rules – and illegitimate – when criminal law uses foreign origin as selection criterion. On the other hand, specific criminalization applied to illegal aliens appears to be inadequate since, depending on the evolution of national administrative rules and European rules, it has no legal certainty and relative interest to restrict illegal immigration.Then, the analysis shows, through a movement of progressive assimilation of aliens to nationals, that criminal law can also lose interest in foreign origin. On one hand, this assimilation meets to a requirement of equality that one may observe not only in criminal lawsuits but also in matters of criminal immunities in favor of some aliens. On the other hand, this assimilation is based on broader fight against impunity of offenders as required by international criminal cooperation and recognized by the mechanism of universal jurisdiction

Full textThe topic of the Romanian diaspora is of major importance in current historical research, given the fact that the level of preoccupation for this significant and constantly active segment of the Romanian population has recently witnessed a series of major events. Hence, from the perspective of historical research, it becomes chiefly necessary to retrace the roots of this veritable phenomenon, represented by the creation of an identity for the Romanian diaspora, in order to assess the evolution of this group, the relations within this community and with its adoptive countries, as well as the existence of a vision shared by the exile. Given the fact that the time of the Two Europes, when the break between the West and the communist bloc often proved to be impossible to overcome, marked the most notable activity of the Romanian diaspora and the one of East-Central Europe in general, it becomes necessary to undergo some thorough research in this regard. Such an endeavour has the ability to further the very complex analyses of communism, focusing on social and political aspects within Romania, or on the position of this state on the stage of international affairs between 1945 and 1989. Nevertheless, the dispersion of the Romanian exile during the totalitarian period was immense, which makes research on this phenomenon, taken as a whole, not only difficult, but also, to some extent, too general and superficial. On the other hand, for us, it was essential to find and justify the existence of a core of the Romanian diaspora, built on undeniable historical and cultural grounds and upheld by a long-lasting tradition. In fact, given the complex data identified, the remarkable biographies of prominent personalities who shaped modern Romanian thinking and its culture, as well as the powerful messages heard at a continental scale between 1945 and 1989, it is France that emerged as the true centre of an exile which became representative of a Romanian nation under communist oppression, but more self-aware than ever before, at the level of its elites. Having narrowed the research question to a clearly-defined, albeit extremely complex, space and segment, our endeavour was constantly focused on the analysis of information that would ensure a high degree of originality. In fact, the topic of the Romanian diaspora seeking refuge in France has not been the topic of any historical thesis so far, which has marked a visible lack in the analyses of the particularly broad phenomenon of the Romanian exile. Nevertheless, the availability of ever more prominent materials on the life, activity and message of those personalities that were part of this category, such as biographies, personal and public archives, as well as complex studies on relevant subjects, paves the way for quality and deeply innovative research. The use of the French language for this thesis becomes a fruitful opportunity which broadens the horizon of access to valuable information, from the very area where the target group of our research was active. This is significant all the more because the sources our thesis relies on can be found in major French libraries and those of other western countries, whilst the papers and documents discovered in Romania are meant to complete an overall picture of this triangle of relations between the Romanian diaspora in France - perceived as a united front -, its adoptive nation and its country of origin

Full textSince the early eighties, local politicians have started to claim their competencies to solve the « problem » of « integration ». Activists in favour of migrants and some national organisations have acted to make that “problem” a top priority on the political agenda. With new mayors elected in Lyon, Nantes and Strasbourg in 1989, cities have been clearly determined to increase their competencies on this topic in front of the State. This process was also noticeable at the European level in network of cities even if French cities stressed out the specific French philosophy of integration. In the 2000s, the setting up of units dedicated to “integration” reveals how local policies on “integration” have started to be institutionalised. However, the rising issue of the fight against discrimination has provoked the disappearance of an active local policy to solve the socio-economic issues migrants and ethnic minorities are facing. Our analysis reveals how politics do matter in policies and how the European level is seen as an opportunity to criticize the supremacy of the State. Last but not least, whereas France is described to be blind to ethnic communities, we stress out how city actions are laying down ethnicity to determine who is a « foreigner »

Full textThe infra-State body represents a pluriform institutional reality and a fragmented geographical reality of the regional and local dimension in EU Member States. Its European legal status is appeared in large part under jurisdictional impetus. The review of the case law of the Court allows to identify and to characterize this legal status. We note that European legal status of the regional or local authority is ambivalent and hybrid in character because of this specificities of the legal system of the European Union. On the one hand, the regional or local authority is assimilated sometimes to the status of the EU Member States, sometimes to the status of the individuals. That ambivalence in terms of legal status, as a subject to European law, cornes from the specificities of the mission of the Court. The Court must be insuring the primacy of European law into national legal systems and into the legal order of the European Union. On the other hand, the Court should consider the requirements of the regional and local dimension of EU Member State. The infra-State body is as an object to EU regulation. The normative action of the regional or local authority is supervised with a view to european integration, and at the same time, a special normative body for overseas regions has developed. We note that the Court contributes to define the normative corpus applying to the regional and local dimension in EU Member States

A milestone in European integration was achieved on January 1, 1999, with the introduction of the euro. The birth of the single currency within the members of European Union symbolizes an "ever closer union", or even the corner stone for United States of Europe. Even though the European Economic Integration started early in 1950s, with the reconciliation between France and Germany, a full economic integration was still unfullfillable and unnecessary at that time. It is until 70s'', the collapse of Bretton Woods System forces the European countries to reconsider the need for monetary union. From 1970 to 1992, for at least two decades, France has been playing a key role in the European monetary integration process. This goal has been pursued by successive governments of different political affiliation, and has very significantly shaped the country’s economic policy. Major policy shifts as well as large-scale reforms were undertaken in the name of this objective. However, there is curiously few research available on the influence of European integration over French economic policy, and even less on the political economy of European monetary integration in France. This paper aims at contributing to a better understanding of these issues. To examine France''s role in the European Monetary integration, we have to take international financial environment and Franco-German relationship into consideration as well. Therefore, this paper will analyze France''s role from three aspects, international financial environment, national attribute, and Policy makers in France. We will examine the major periods of French macroeconomic and structural reform policies since the 1970s, and then analyze why France continuately pursue further monetary integration. Is it only a result of France''s traditional attitude " Keep America out, put German down, France''s European Europe"? From this perspective, the thesis is divided into seven chapters as follows: 1. Introduction 2. Historical review of European integration movements and Theoretical Review of Monetary integration 3. Interaction between France and European Monetary integration since 1970s 4. Mitterand’s early attitude toward European monetary union 5. Decisive role of France on European monetary integration 6. Maastricht Treaty in 1992 7. Conclusion

This thesis will examine the paths taken by the Presidents of the French Fifth Republic, Charles de Gaulle and Franois Mitterrand during the periods of 1958-69 and 1981-95, with respect to European integration. In fact, the leading role of France in pursuit of the European integration is beyond dispute. But why did De Gaulle and Mitterrand choose to further the European cooperation? According to the "institutional approach", economic policies are generally formed in response to pressures from various organizations, such as organizations of labor, of capital, of state, political systems, and in response to the position of a nation within the international economy. Obviously, the challenge posed by post-war West Germany motivated French leaders to promote European integration in the 1950''s and the resurgence of West German economic power was viewed with concern in France. At the end of the Second World War, the Cold War was an important institutional pressure for France and other Western Europe countries. Due to the instability of the international financial system and the two Oil Crisis, the world economic turmoil of 1970''s, characterized by the coincidence of inflation and a recession, also will not be neglected. The French policies towards European integration under Mitterrand''s administration were no doubt affected by the pressure of the day. Despite the establishment of the European integration and the peaceful cooperation between France and Germen(or other European countries) before the end of the century, the tendency towards regionalization and the globalization have deeply and continually eroded the preservation of traditional French culture and identity. The debate about "Europeanism" and "Nationalism" is, of course, inevitable.

Full textThe subject of this dissertation is the attitude of the participants of the French political scene, the society, and daily newspapers towards the European Union (EU) in the years 2012–2014. The economic and financial crisis contributed to a change in the EU image in France. France, which was defined as „a EU locomotive-country” in the years 2012–2014, joined the group of states wherein eurosceptical tendencies became clearly visualised both in the political scene, in the press and among the citizens.The time frame results from the observed change of the French society’s opinion to the EU and the process of European integration compared to 2007. The problem is topical due to a change in public feeling in the selected period as well as in later years, as evidenced by the results of the first and second rounds of the presidential elections in France in 2017.The aim of this dissertation was to demonstrate that the increasing dissatisfaction of the French society related to the inefficiency of actions of the EU institutions in the fight against the crisis was both reflected in national opinion-forming dailies and contributed to an increase in popularity of parties propagating populist programmes. The first chapter discusses the origins of the EU, and its status in the international relations. It highlights its character in which the features of an interstate and transnational organization are combined with its legal and international personality.The second chapter discusses the attitude of political parties in France towards the European integration process in a historical approach, the attitude of French politicians towards the European integration process, and the outcome of the elections to the Europarliament in 2014. An analysis of French political programmes from 2007 and 2012 was conducted for the purpose of displaying a change in the attitude of political parties towards the EU and the European integration process that took place in 2012 due to a financial crisis. This chapter also presents the impact of the crisis in the EU on its perception by the French and the attitude of the French public opinion towards the EU, its future and the European integration process in the years 2012–2014.The third chapter presented the outcome of a quantitative and qualitative analysis of the first pages of the „Le Figaro”, „Le Monde” and „Aujourd’hui en France” as well as the results of an analysis of the content of the foregoing daily newspapers in the years 2012–2014. The main objective of the content analysis was the definition of the attitude of three French national daily newspapers towards the UE in the years 2012–2014 which, in the subsequent stage of the analysis, allowed determining the degree of compliance of the media coverage with the outcome of French public opinion polls.The conclusion of the thesis includes a comparison of the conclusions drawn from the outcomes of expertise presented by public opinion research centres and the analysis of daily newspaper content. An analysis of political programmes from 2014 was also conducted in order to demonstrate whether a change in the attitude of French political parties towards the EU and the European integration process had been more intense since 2012, or less so. Also, an attempt was made to find an answer to the question, ‘how the attitude of French political parties, society and daily press might have affected/affect further relations of that country with the EU’.

In today''s Europe, France and Germany are perceived as key actors that exercise an essential influence on shaping European policies. Plus, the special relationship between the two states has served as the anchor of European integration since its starting point. Since the reconciliation after WWII, the Franco-German bilateralism has evolved into an intimate partnership in the framework of the Élysée Treaty signed in 1963. The institutional architecture between France and Germany was then to be enforced that enabled such ancient antagonists to mediate their conflicts and act in tandem on European issues. Thus, the so-called ‘Franco-German Axis’ is understood as an intense Franco-German cooperation in view of European leadership in the sense of promoting integration, managing crises, and shaping subgroups of member states. However, considering the growing power asymmetry brought by the return of German hegemony coupled with relative French economic and political weakness, the Franco-German Axis is perceived to have stalled and questioned to have lost its raison d’ être in recent years. Therefor, the aimes of this thesis were to figure out whether the Franco-German Axis has already become an obsolete notion that no longer makes sense. In the case of the European sovereign debt crisis, an intense Franco-German cooperation is still observable in identifying solutions to common challenges and breaking deadlocks in negotiations at the EU level under three types of leadership: Agenda-setting, consensus building, coalition building. Besides, comparing to the costly and time-consuming bargaining procedure on the EU level, the intensif and highly institutionalized communications on the Franco-German bilateral level plus their issue specific leadership resources on EMU matters somehow remain themselves at the core of the EU. In this context, we can say that a Franco-German partnership still remains a critical and symbolic factor necessary for reaching agreements leading to more institutional changes in the EU.

After the Franco-Prussian war and the first and second world wars, France and Germany became enemies but the current Franco-German relationship is harmonious. After the reconciliation, the two nations have pushed the cooperation of economics, politics and defense in Europe as a good example of peace making to the world. In truth France and Germany did not get along well. Although Adenauer and De Gaulle signed the Franco-German cooperation treaty in 1963, the two nations did not achieve any political objectives in the 60’s. It was only when facing the economical competition from the U.S. and Japan, that West Germany and France proposed the initiatives to establish The European Monetary System and Single European Act in 1978 and 1985. And under the pressure of American-Russian Strategy Arms Limitation Talks, Mitterrand and Kohl declared the establishment of the Franco-German Defense and Security Council while celebrating the 25th anniversary of the Franco-German cooperation treaty in 1988. However, the coming Germany reunification impacted the balance of the Franco-German axis. The economic and military power of New Germany grew and suddenly Germany became the biggest state in the European Community. In post cold war times, France was not superior anymore in the Franco-German relationship; thus the two nations faced the challenge of a readjustment. In a series of international conflicts in the 90’s, France and Germany tried to achieve the unanimity of opinion and action though their different ideas still existed. The two nations also learned a lesson from each conflict’s solution process, engaging domestic reform and strengthening bilateral cooperation in order to promote an independent European defense capacity. In terms of the European integration, because of Mitterrand and Kohl’s good friendship, the two nations were accustomed to the new political situation. However, as Germany searched for normal nation benefits and the two government heads changed, the Franco-German relationship entered into a difficult period. The two nations had rather serious quarrels concerning EU affairs, especially after Schröder was elected as the German Chancellor. Due to the conflict at Nice IGC and the continuing quarrels over the European Union’s (EU) future, the Franco-German axis was too weak to push further EU political integration and even on public opinion the Franco-German motor came to the end. However after Chirac and Schröder were re-elected in 2002, they began to repair their special relationship. In 2003 while celebrating the 40th anniversary of the Franco-German cooperation treaty, the two close friends announced a joint declaration for tightening their bilateral relationship. In order to protest American hegemony, France and Germany were against the American military attack on Iraq and urged the separation of the EU defense from NATO. In addition, the two nations achieved agreement in Common Agriculture Policy reform, Turkey’s association issue and European constitution problem. They even broke the Stability and Growth Pact together. At present the Franco-German relationship is exceptionally close but they meet the challenge of a divided Europe. Under Bush’s dictatorial threat and after the new enlargement of the EU, France and Germany, which take similar stands and interests, engage deeper cooperation. The hardest test for the moment is the task of the European constitution treaty ratification. Therefore France and Germany began to modify the cooperation model and started paying attention to ally with small countries. By using this method the task of the European constitution treaty ratification, which the Franco-German axis are pushing would be fulfilled in the right way.
