«La grande illusion» is Alain Minc's essay on Europe, in a French paperback edition.
Minc analyses the European future at the end of the 1980s, when West Germany was shifting towards the centre of Europe. He warns that the EEC could evolve into a continental Europe that crosses the Iron Curtain, with a 'Finlandisation'. He asks whether lucidity forces one into Euro-pessimism and whether that illusion can become a real destiny.
Originally published in 1989 by Grasset, this paperback edition from Le Livre de Poche dates from 1999.
Aimed at readers interested in European integration, late-20th-century geopolitics and political-economic essays.

Alain Minc is a French businessman, political advisor and author.
