Germany, 1871-1945 presents an original, lucid, and
thought-provoking history. Its aim is to inspire readers to weigh
the historical evidence. At the end of the Second World War, the
first unified German state collapsed, a disintegration with
European and global ramifications. Ever since, historians have
sought to explain what went wrong in German history. Many have
focused on the violence which forged unification; others have
highlighted the clash of authoritarian, anti-democratic, and
anti-Semitic traditions with rapid industrialization and
modernization. Germany, 1871-1945 presents a pragmatic
interpretation of German history, from the unification to the end
of the Nazi regime. This more open approach acknowledges the strong
trend in German society towards modernization and democratization,
particularly before 1914, while also highlighting the factors which
propelled Germany toward World War I. The rise of the Nazis also
demands a close analysis of the economic and political instability
of the 1920s and early 1930s. Finally, a detailed assessment of the
Third Reich explains how the regime's early successes fostered a
loyalty and acceptance that remained hard to shake until disaster
was obvious and unavoidable.
