From German unification in 1871 through the early 1960s,
confessional tensions between Catholics and Protestants were a
source of deep division in German society. Engaging this period of
historic strife, Germany and the Confessional Divide focuses on
three traumatic episodes: the Kulturkampf waged against the
Catholic Church in the 1870s, the collapse of the Hohenzollern
monarchy and state-supported Protestantism after World War I, and
the Nazi persecution of the churches. It argues that memories of
these traumatic experiences regularly reignited confessional
tensions. Only as German society became increasingly secular did
these memories fade and tensions ease.
