Synopsis
The Republic of De Gaulle covers the momentous eleven-year ascendancy of Charles de Gaulle as President of the newly established Fifth Republic. Serge Berstein analyzes important constitutional, political and socio-economic changes and De Gaulle's remarkable foreign policy. He concludes with an examination of De Gaulle's eventual fall, with an entire chapter on 1968. The work contains all the standard features that have helped this series to establish itself as the premier multivolume account of modern France., 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., The latest volume to appear in the successful 'Cambridge History of Modern France', and covers the momentous eleven-year ascendancy of Charles de Gaulle as President of the newly-established Fifth Republic. The work contains all standard features which have helped this series to establish itself as the premier multi-volume account of modern France.
