Description

Germany, 1871-1945 presents an original, lucid, and thought-provoking history. Its aim is to inspire readers to weigh the historical evidence. At the end of the Second World War, the first unified German state collapsed, a disintegration with European and global ramifications. Ever since, historians have sought to explain what went wrong in German history. Many have focused on the violence which forged unification; others have highlighted the clash of authoritarian, anti-democratic, and anti-Semitic traditions with rapid industrialization and modernization. Germany, 1871-1945 presents a pragmatic interpretation of German history, from the unification to the end of the Nazi regime. This more open approach acknowledges the strong trend in German society towards modernization and democratization, particularly before 1914, while also highlighting the factors which propelled Germany toward World War I. The rise of the Nazis also demands a close analysis of the economic and political instability of the 1920s and early 1930s. Finally, a detailed assessment of the Third Reich explains how the regime's early successes fostered a loyalty and acceptance that remained hard to shake until disaster was obvious and unavoidable. Review Raffael Scheck has provided us with a competent, well written, and accessible textbook. In covering the whole period between 1871 and 1945 and focusing on an enlightened political history it will be very useful to undergraduates as well as general readers. Moritz Follmer, University of Leeds This is an interesting and generally balanced account of a crucial period in German history. The book is characterized by smooth-flowing, quite accessible narrative. Unusual in a work of this sort, the author on occasion effectively weaves his own experiences and his family history into the narrative. Dietrich Orlow, Boston University About the Author Raffael Scheck is Professor of the History Department, Colby College, and is the author of Alfred von Tirpitz and German Right-Wing Politics, 1914-1930 (1998), Mothers of the Nation (2004), and Hitler's African Victims (2006; pbk. 2008).
