The Politics of the New Germany continues to provide the most
comprehensive, authoritative and up-to-date textbook on
contemporary German Politics. The text takes a new approach to
understanding politics in the post-unification Federal Republic.
Assuming only elementary knowledge, it focuses on a series of the
most important debates and issues in Germany today with the aim of
helping students understand both the workings of the country's key
institutions and some of the most important policy challenges
facing German politicians. For this second edition, the content has
been comprehensively updated throughout, augmented by additional
factboxes and data, and features new material on: Grand coalition
Lisbon treaty Constitutional court Financial crisis Reform of
social policy Afghanistan. Written in a straightforward style by
three experts, each of the chapters draws on a rich variety of
real-world examples. In doing so, it highlights both the challenges
and opportunities facing policy-makers in such areas as foreign
affairs, economic policy, immigration, identity politics and
institutional reform. The book also takes a bird's-eye view of the
big debates that have defined German politics over time, regardless
of which political parties happened to be in power. It pinpoints
three key themes that have characterised German politics over the
last sixty years; reconciliation, consensus and transformation. The
book is a comprehensive, yet highly accessible, overview of
politics in 21st Century Germany and should be essential reading
for students of politics and international relations, as well as of
European and German studies.
