Rationality and Emotion [electronic resource] : Comparative Studies of the Franco-German and Sino-Japanese Reconciliations /
Ren, Lin.author.
Reconciliation is an important agenda for post-war countries. It plays a major role in harmonizing bilateral and regional relations. Lin Ren compares reconciliations between the Sino-Japanese and the Franco-German dyads. Each dyad shares a deep-rooted historic antagonism. Nevertheless, France and Germany have reached a far deeper degree of reconciliation. The author explores the causes that led to the diverse outcomes, so as to challenge taking rationality as the single micro-foundation of decision-making concerning reconciliation.   Contents ·        Economic Interdependence ·        Maintaining or Challenging Equilibrium ·        Convergent Memories of History ·        Political Similarity ·        Territorial Narratives     Target Groups ·        Researchers and students in the fields of political science, international relations and history ·        Journalists, politicians    The Author Dr. Lin Ren completed her PhD at Freie Universität Berlin under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Klaus Segbers at the Department of Political and Social Sciences.
