About this book

Wittlinger takes a fresh look at German national identity in the 21st century and shows that it has undergone considerable changes since unification in 1990. Due to the external pressures of the post-cold war world and recent domestic developments, Germany has re-emerged as a nation which is less hesitant to assert its national interest.

Reviews

'Clear, comprehensive and compelling' - The Times Literary Supplement

'For insight into modern Germany, I couldn't recommend a better book...clearly written, concise, in the know, touch, explanatory and not afriad of the big stuff...' - David Marx Book Reviews
