WorldViews. Die Welt im Schulbuch

In accordance with the curricula of 2002, the authors devote an entire section (Part 3, chapters 6 to 8) to the history of Europe from 1945 to the present day. Chapter 6, entitled Western Europe under Construction, follows Chapter 5, which closes the second part about colonisation and decolonisation in the world, and precedes Chapter 7, which recounts the age of popular democracies’ in Europe. In Chapter 6, the authors explore the history of European construction, the political and economic issues at stake, as well as both its successes and failures.

The large brightly coloured map which covers three quarters of the second double page in the chapter entitled The Nation-states and European Construction [S001, p. 186-187], provides information about the geopolitics of the twelve nation-states of Western Europe which were the key participants in European construction in 1989. This map contains information about the political and administrative systems of each country as well as the number of members of the European Parliament allotted to each country.
