Gaullism (1972) is a historical-analytical study of the social and political movement of Gaullism, examining its political philosophy and practice, and its originator Charles de Gaulle. Starting with an analysis of de Gaulle’s philosophy and the background of the Third Republic, the book traces the development of Gaullism during the war years and the Fourth Republic, details the founding of the Fifth Republic and its foreign and domestic policy, and examines the problems that came to a dramatic crystallization in the riots of May 1968.
