Description: "More durable than any other contemporary democratic head of government and all previous German chancellors since Bismarck, Helmut Kohl has earned a place in history by helping to end his own nation's division and shape a new Europe. In this volume, six scholars and journalists assess his leadership and legacy. They analyse the chancellor's goals and governing style, including his part in promoting European integration, as well as Kohl's domestic political role - vis-a-vis his own party, its main opponents and the public - and his comparative standing among fellow European leaders."--BOOK JACKET.
