As Germany celebrates the fiftieth anniversary of the founding of
the Federal Republic of Germany--the former West Germany-- leading
scholars take stock in this volume of the political, social, and
economic progress Germany made as it built a democratic political
system and a powerful economy, survived the Cold War, and dealt
with the challenges of reunification.
The contributors address issues such as Germany's response to
extremists, the development of a professional civil service,
judicial review, the maintenance of the welfare state, the nature
of contemporary German nationalism, and Germany's role in the
world.
Contributors are Thomas Banchoff, Thomas U. Berger, Patricia Davis,
Ernst Haas, Jost Halfmann, Christard Hoffmann, Carl-Lugwig
