Deutsche Außenpolitik

A quarter of a century after its reunification in 1990, Germany is today facing multiple foreign-policy tasks as a result of instabilities among Europe's neighbours, global challenges in the increasingly unsettled twenty-first century, and tensions between the older and newer powers. This book traces the development of German foreign policy since 1949, clarifying the paths it has taken and the route it will be following in the twenty-first century between 'semi-hegemony' and multilateral action - making the constant tension between continuity and change clearly understandable in many different ways.
