It shall be seen that both in 1963 and 1967, General de Gaulle’s stance didn’t go against the representations and the opinions of the French. Britain was generally considered a conservative, declining country turned towards the US. Though this image was partly blurred by the British pop culture, which deeply influenced the imagination of the baby-boomers, the other generations rather saw this cultural change as the symptom of an identity crisis. This pessimistic and condescending view explains the national consensus on the two vetoes, but also reveals the new self-confidence of a country whose economic expansion was reinforced by its politics of grandeur.
