Europe la bataille des sièges

Discover the grand history of Europe through the smaller stories of its capitals: Strasbourg, Luxembourg, and Brussels. The major European institutions—at the heart of an ongoing struggle where national interests and visions of Europe clash—are chronicled here by Catherine Trautmann, Jean-Claude Juncker, Louis Michel, Colette Flesch, and Charles Goerens. What emerges from this little-known history is indeed the face of today’s Europe—a landscape of successes and failures, of symbols and the quest for a legitimacy that remains ever-shifting.
