Description

Drawing on exclusive interviews with Jacques Delors himself, this comprehensive, accessibly written study of his life and Commission presidency is an invaluable resource for all those interested in European and French Politics.

This book also raises important issues such as: the role of individual leaders in contemporary politics the legitimacy of the European Union as a political system.
