Overview

Wilfried Martens has devoted his life to politics: from student leader to Flemish militant, president of the Christian democratic youth movement, party president of the Flemish Christian democrats, Prime Minister of Belgium, President of the European People's Party and Chairman of its Group in the European Parliament. In his autobiography, Martens relates the inside story of keeping a complex country like Belgium together, fighting for European integration and unification, and transforming the European People's party into the largest political family in Europe. Above all, this is a book about what politics is about, how politics are made, and which sources, values and principles lay behind such a life in politics.
