France, Germany and Britain: Partners in a Changing World explores the relationship, and the potential for closer cooperation, which exist between France, Germany and Britain as they enter the new millennium.France, Germany and Britain: Partners in a Changing World explores the relationship, and the potential for closer cooperation, which exist between France, Germany and Britain as they enter the new millennium. It focuses on a wide range of domains in which the three partner countries interact - including financial and monetary integration, economic and industrial cooperation, politics, security and defence, business and corporate governance, and education. Given the change in government which each of these countries underwent in 1997-1998, given too the apparent willingness of New Labour to assume a more central role on the European stage, the time is ripe to reassess the relationship between France, Germany and Britain as we enter the twenty-first century.
