Introduction
1. It is important to note that whilst the international context of German foreign policy changed virtually overnight with the end of the Cold War, the content of German foreign policy was resistant to wholesale changes. To this end Eberwein and Kaiser state, ‘To a certain extent, when Germany was unified and attained full sovereignty, its position in international politics changed overnight’, in Eberwein, W.-D. and Kaiser, K. (eds) (2001), p. 3, Germany’s New Foreign Policy: Decision-making in an Interdependent World (Basingstoke: Palgrave). Banchoff contends that, ‘The collapse of the Soviet bloc and reunifi- cation transformed the context of German foreign policy’ in Banchoff, T. (1999), p. 131, The German Problem Transformed: Institutions, Politics and Foreign Policy, 1945–1995 (Ann Arbor: University of Michigan Press). 2. Ladrech, R.

(2006), The Quest for a European Strategic Culture (Basingstoke, Palgrave). Longhurst defines strategic culture as, ‘ … a distinctive body of beliefs, attitudes and practices regarding the use of force, which are held by a collective (usually a nation) and arise gradually over time, through a unique and protracted historical process.

Strategic culture is persistent over time, tending to outlast the era of its origi- nal inception, although it is not a permanent or static feature. It is shaped and influenced by formative periods and can alter, either fundamentally or piece- meal, at critical junctures in that collective’s experiences.’ See, Longhurst, K. and Zaborowski, M.

Interviews in the Ständige Vertretung der Bundesrepublik Deutschland, Brussels 2nd and 3rd July 2003. Maurer and Wessels pinpoint the ineffective- ness of Germany’s Permanent Representation to the European Union as being down to difficulties arising from the vertical and horizontal diffusion of power in Germany which is out of step with the policy-making style in Brussels.

In relation to the choices facing Germany in Europe Gunther Hellmann has identified five schools of thought within the debate over the future course of German foreign policy; pragmatic multilateralist, euro- peanist, euroskeptics, internationalist and normalisation-nationalists. These groupings relate to policy preferences held by policy-makers as well as, in the case of the internationalist and the normalisation-nationalists, options for the pursuit of German grand strategy.

Kohl and Mitterrand’s leadership was also vital in negotiations surrounding EMU. As Dyson and Featherstone state, ‘Kohl and Mitterrand sought to escape the confines of EMU as negotiated by bureaucracies and constrained by bureaucratic politics and to focus on the big issues of creating a viable European structure to ensure a stable peace order in the wake of German uni- fication. Without this political leadership, agreement would have proved protracted and quite possibly elusive’, in Dyson, K. and Featherstone, K.
