This report
was submitted as a master's thesis at the Institute of Political
Science at Stuttgart University in 1987. The study is organised
in three parts. In part I, the foundations for the foreign
policy of France and for the Federal Republic of Germany (integration
into Western institutions and détente) and the national
dilemmas are developed. Part II reviews the possibilities
for a rapprochement between both countries in the strategic
realm with a focus on the nuclear strategy of France between
autonomy and alliance orientation and for Germany and NATO
strategy, the initiatives for a Franco-German cooperation
and the divergent and convergent elements in the strategic
area. In Part III on German French arms cooperation both French
and German interests and the existing bilateral projects are
reviewed and critically assessed.
