Title: "The evolution of France's European monetary diplomacy"
Abstract: This paper seeks to shed light on the factors driving European monetary integration by examining changes in France's diplomacy towards this issue since 1969. Because France has long been the principal advocate of European monetary integration (indeed, the Maastricht Treaty itself is the result of a French diplomatic initiative launched in January 1988), the French case is certainly significant. However, the French case also presents an interesting paradox: Why has the European country most notoriously jealous of its national sovereignty also been the leading proponent for European monetary integration?
