This captivating book delves into the intricate dynamics of the post-war Greco-German relationship, seeking to understand its role in shaping the narrative of European integration. It sheds light on the significant influence exerted by West Germany on the development model of Greece, highlighting the long-standing modernization strategies adopted by both countries as early as the 1950s. The author argues that the success, rather than the failure, of these strategies lies at the heart of Greece's persistent balance of payments problems, notably the widening trade deficit with Germany, its primary trading partner. By tracing the three-decade story of uneasy continuity, the book offers fresh perspectives on core-periphery relations within Europe, challenges prevailing notions about Greece's path to European integration, and interrogates the use of the North-South divide to explain the recent euro crisis. Through its exploration of past cooperation between prominent political and business circles in Greece and Germany, the book provides valuable insights for historians and political scientists alike.
