German Unification and the Union of Europe explores the effects of Germany's unification in 1990 on its policies toward the European Union. Jeffrey Anderson examines the interplay between the domestic politics of unification and the supranational politics of integration, attempting to explain the complex pattern of continuity and change in Germany's policies toward Europe. The book utilizes leading theories of political economy, and is based on detailed archival research and numerous interviews with politicians, civil servants and interest group representatives in both Germany and Brussels.
