Abstract
The French parliamentary and party system was particularly complicated and fragmented during the Fourth Republic, i.e. until 1958. Because of this I do not intend to give an account of the political positions of every single parliamentary group. For issues referring to the European integration process this will be done in the main chapter, insofar as important contributions to the French discourse on Europe are given with the respective MP and the party affiliation in the footnotes. The following paragraph is rather a reflection on major political currents and their leading figures.
