Samenvatting

This is the first English language source reader that deals with post-war (West) Germany. Over 160 commented sources describe the political, social and economic developments that changed Germany from the abyss of Nazism into a prosperous ally of the West and into one of the driving forces of European integration.

This is the first English language source reader that deals with post-war (West) Germany. The sources, which include official Allied and German documents, parliamentary debates, contemporary newspapers articles, diaries and a large number of previously unpublished archival materials, allow for the first time a source-based study of post-war Germany for non-German speakers.

The sources allow an assessment of the changes of Allied policy in the immediate post-war years which led to the establishment of the Federal Republic of Germany; explain the country’s role in the intensifying Cold War; and encourage a re-evaluation of the ‘economic miracle’ and whether the Federal Republic signified a ‘new start’ for Germany or a ‘restoration’ of the old social forces and patterns.

The book will be of great benefit to students of German post-war history at all levels. It offers a unique opportunity for teachers and lecturers to go well beyond the traditional sources explaining German History and the Cold War.
