Summary of Alan Crawford & Tony Czuczka's Angela Merkel

Sinopse

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.Sample Book Insights: #1 Greece was the pivotal challenge of a chancellorship forged in crisis. Faced with economic and financial turmoil stemming from Greece, which threatened the euro, Merkel was forced to adapt and balance external demands for greater action with domestic political constraints on doing so.#2 When she became chancellor, Merkel took over a Germany that was struggling to adapt to the challenges of globalization. She brought the rigor of scientific analysis she’d learned in the physics laboratories of East Berlin and Leipzig to problem-solving of an economic and financial nature.#3 As the euro crisis ravaged Greece, Merkel was heavily criticized for her lack of support, but she stood by the country and saved the euro on her terms. She became Europe’s de-facto leader, but with resentment of her newly assertive Germany growing, it was far from clear whether the rest of Europe was prepared to share the journey to her final destination.
