Global Order After Ukraine
The Ambivalent Alliance
Whenever asked to name his most significant accomplishment as West Germany's first Chancellor, Konrad Adenauer would invariably reply: "The alliance with the free West." Scholars have echoed his assessment, citing the Federal Republic of Germany's successful integration into the American-led West (Westbindung) as the key to its postwar economic and political recovery. Behind this simple success story, however,lies a much more complicated history:…
Nuclear Threats, Nuclear Fear and the Cold War of the 1980s
Through the 1980s, intellectuals and activists warned that the nuclear policies of the superpowers, especially the decision by the North Atlantic Treaty Organization to modernize intermediate-range missiles in Europe, threatened to bring the world closer to Armageddon. Despite increasingly dire warnings, however, the world did not end. Indeed, by late 1987, President Ronald Reagan and Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev signed the Washington Treaty, …

The Discreet Charm of the Police State
Over the past few decades, students of contemporary German history have come to reject the once fashionable notion of a Stunde Null in 1945. Instead, they generally emphasize the continuities in German politics and society that reach across old familiar caesuras. In his study of the postwar Bavarian police, Jose Raymund Canoy offers his own assessment of the continuities in German traditions, though with a twist. Rather than emphasizing the conne…
Politics in C Minor
In 1962, the Christian Democratic Union (CDU) faced an uncertain future. The governing party within the Federal Republic of Germany since the state's founding in 1949 (along with its Bavarian partner, the Christian Social Union, known collectively as the CDU/CSU or Union), the CDU had endured a bruising election campaign through the summer of 1961. The combination of a dynamic young Social Democratic challenger, Willy Brandt, and the building of …

Deutsch-amerikanischer Kulturaustausch im 20. Jahrhundert
While on the outside many American universities, with their neo-Gothic quadrangles, quaintly named residential colleges, and clubby common rooms, emphasize a connection to the academic traditions of the British Isles, modern academic practice in the United States owes a greater debt to the Germans. Such familiar images as the research seminar and the doctoral degree trace their lineage quite literally back to Germany, even if the political tides …
The United States and Germany in the Era of the Cold War, 1945–1990
These volumes were originally published in 2004. The close association between the United States and the Federal Republic of Germany was a key element in the international order of the Cold War era. No country had as wide-reaching or as profound an impact on the western portion of divided Germany as the United States. No country better exemplified the East-West conflict in American thinking than Germany. The United States and Germany in the Era o…
The Ambivalent Alliance
Remaking the Conquering Heroes
The American occupation of Germany has long fascinated students of postwar German history. Scholars agree that American influence played a major role in the Federal Republic of Germany's political and cultural rehabilitation after 1945. John Willoughby's goal in his short book (151 pages of text) is to show that the impact on the Americans was no less significant. Willoughby argues that the domestication of American troops, from undisciplined, se…
