Germany, 1870-1945 deals with the three attempts to build a German
nation-state between 1871 and 1945, and the reasons for their
failure. Haunted by the specter of the abortive liberal-national
revolution of 1848-49, German politicians sought a series of
solutions, none of which found a constitutional consensus, and two
of which ended in military disaster. Pulzer looks at the two
solutions imposed from above, those of Bismarck and Hitler, and the
stalled revolution from below, that of the Weimar Republic. He
examines the external influences on Germany's political
development, such as the European state system and the Versailles
treaty of 1919, but the main focus is on the tension between
democratic and authoritarian forces, the series of unsatisfactory
constitutional compromises, the main institutions of government,
and the emergence and influence of parties and interest groups.
