Description

France Since 1815 provides an accessible overview of major socio-political changes in France during this period. Designed for students studying French, it presents historical context necessary to understand contemporary French society. This revised edition includes new material on Chirac's second mandate, Sarkozy presidency, and the last ten years, culminating in the results of the 2012 presidential elections. The book adopts a chronological approach, surveying nearly two hundred years of French history, including key events such as The French Revolution, The Bourbon Restoration, and France after 2003. Features include clear timelines, glossary inserts, primary documents, and access to a website with complementary material. Drawing on the best scholarship, the book places particular emphasis on political memory, women's contributions, colonialism, post-colonialism, and France's relationship with European partners in greater depth.
