Description

Explore the complex history of a nation transformed by the end of the First World War. Postcolonial Germany: Memories of Empire in a Decolonized Nation examines how Germany lost its sense of national self-worth and its vast overseas territories following the war. This work details the loss of nearly three million square kilometres of land across Africa, China, and the Pacific. As the first postcolonial European nation to have participated in new imperialism, Germany faced forced decolonization by Allied powers who declared the nation unfit to rule overseas populations. This book provides a deep look into the transition from an imperial power to a decolonized state, covering the loss of borderland territories and the impact on the German identity in the international political arena. It is an essential read for students and readers interested in European history and the legacy of global empires.
