Présentation de l'éditeur :
"Empire" by Integration is the first comprehensive survey of the American policy towards European integration from 1945 to the present day. Geir Lundestad argues that, unlike other Great Powers, the United States strongly supported the integration of the most important area under its influence: Western Europe. This integration was, however, to take place within an American-dominated Atlantic framework. In the provocative words of the author this was a policy of "empire" by integration. Professor Lundestad takes a clear, chronological approach to the subject, from the beginnings of European integration after the Second World War, the challenge to American policy on European integration by President Charles de Gaulle, and the modified support for European integration in the Nixon-Kissinger years through to the present revived support for European integration under the Clinton administration. "Empire" by Integration provides a succinct, provocative, and highly readable account of this crucial aspect of American-Western European relations. It will be an ideal textbook for use on courses including International Relations, US Modern History, and European Integration.
Revue de presse :
There has been, until now, no comprehensive history of United States policy toward European integration. Geir Lundestad's is a perceptive, well-informed, and yet succinct account, certain to become the standard treatment of the subject for years to come. (John Lewis Gaddis, Robert Lovett Professor of History, Yale University)

This book is not simply a first-rate survey of a very important topic of post-World War Two international history. It is also an evocative and provocative analysis of US motives and tactics regarding European integration...Lundestad has made another first-rate contribution to the literature on American foreign relations. (Melvyn P. Leffler, Professor of History, University of Virginia)

There is a great deal usefully summarized in this book; it should become a standard text for university courses, and an invaluable crib for the many who lack the time to read through the accumulation of historical evidence book by book. (William Wallace, London School of Economics and Political Science)
