dc.description.abstract | French foreign policy towards the US is often understood as particularly
confrontational and based on traditional power politics, or a wish to re-establish “la grandeur
de la France”. This article aims at investigating the validity of this widely held view. It further
seeks to provide a more comprehensive understanding of the French positions by studying the
arguments used by the French political leadership and the implications of the Iraq conflict for
bilateral cooperation at lower levels. This study questions the common assumption of IR
theory that national identities and/or interests are fixed and independent of structural factors
such as international norms and values. It also questions the value of focusing exclusively on
diplomatic or “top-level” bilateral relations, without looking at “low-level” or practical
bilateral cooperation and/or conflicts. | nb_NO |
