Summary
This collection consists of photocopied excerpts of collections taken from various archives and libraries which hold material on Monnet and the making of Europe. The documents cover the period from the inter-war years to the Rome Treaties and the US-EURATOM agreement, when Jean Monnet exerted his greatest influence. Also contained in this fonds are book extracts and interviews with individuals relevant to Jean Monnet and Europe, as well as Duchêne's documents concerning his research for his book "Jean Monnet: the first statesman of interdependence", Norton, 1994. The documents of this collection offer a full perspective on Monnet's critical years in pursuing European unity and also offer a wider angle on the subject of integration and personalities, policies and events involved. Like another collection of this genre, Jean Monnet American Sources, held in the HAEU, one can see the strong American ingredient in Monnet's career and his relations with top American officials who influenced the turn of events
