• Sommario/riassunto: "This book offers interesting and challenging insights into the evolution of British-German relations within the context of European integration in the post-Second World War and post-Unification era. The book argues that throughout the latter half of the twentieth century Britain and Germany can be characterised as 'uneasy allies'. It is only since the late 1990s Britain and Germany appear to have become genuine partners in the context of European integration."--Jacket.
