    The Agricultural Bone of Contention: The Franco-German Tandem and the Making of the CAP, 1963-1966
    in Journal of European Integration History , vol. 16, n. 2 ,  2010 ,  25-44
    The making of the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) in the first half of the 1960s was characterized by a series of Franco-German conflicts that regularly resulted in Community crises. Based on research conducted in France and in Germany, this article explores to what extent the two countries’ disagreements on the developments of the European Economic Community were responsible for the repeated crises that broke out on agricultural matters. Focusing on three key agricultural negotiations, it sheds light on the shifting power relations within the Franco-German tandem and on how both countries were able to shape Community bargains in the agricultural area.
