Since the end of the Cold War, French defence policy has undergone a transformation. France has reformed its national defence to Europeanize and multilateralize its role, moved closer to NATO, and emerged as amongst the world's most active military powers. This study presents a wide-ranging analysis, setting out the background and policy framework of French defence, charting the transformation of policy between 1989 and 1996, and examining the role of the French military within and beyond Europe into the 21st century.

'This is a timely analytical overview of the principal features of French defence policy as we enter the new millennium. It should be required reading for all those who seek to go beyond the stereotyped explanations based on interpretations of 'Gaullism' which characterise much of the existing literature. Many experts believe they understand French defence policy. Few really understand it. Gregory is one of the few.' - Jolyon Howarth, Jean Monnet Professor of European Political Union, University of Bath 'Shaun Gregory provides an accurate and well-documented analysis of the evolution of French defence policy since the end of the Cold War. This book will be very useful to anyone seeking to understand the French position in the new millennium.' - Pascal Boniface, Director, Institut de Relations Internationales et Strategiques
