Description
The Republic of De Gaulle offers a comprehensive account - the fullest yet available in English - of the eleven years that followed the establishment of the Fifth Republic in 1958.
Serge Berstein analyses the new constitutional and political system that emerged under De Gaulle, and shows how France was able to disengage from the ruinous Algerian War.
He then conducts a detailed analysis of the socio-economic changes wrought during this period, and discusses the aims of De Gaulle's highly individualistic foreign policy.
In the final section Professor Berstein traces the decline of De Gaulle's ascendancy up to his eventual resignation in 1969.
In conclusion the author assesses the contribution of a remarkable political leader to the not less remarkable changes that took place in France during his presidency.
This volume, lucidly translated by Peter Morris, features all those student aids now associated with the series.
