By the late 1960s, West Germany and Israel were moving in almost
opposite diplomatic directions in a political environment dominated
by the Cold War. The Federal Republic launched ambitious policies
to reconcile with its Iron Curtain neighbors, expand its influence
in the Arab world, and promote West European interests vis-a-vis
the United States. By contrast, Israel, unable to obtain peace with
the Arabs after its 1967 military victory and threatened by
Palestinian terrorism, became increasingly dependent upon the
United States, estranged from the USSR and Western Europe, and
isolated from the Third World. Nonetheless, the two countries
remained connected by shared security concerns, personal bonds, and
recurrent evocations of the German-Jewish past. Drawing upon
newly-available sources covering the first decade of the countries'
formal diplomatic ties, Carole Fink reveals the underlying issues
that shaped these two countries' fraught relationship and sets
their foreign and domestic policies in a global context.
