The Polish Minority in Germany
This paper commences with some general observations on Poland’s kin-state policy followed by an analysis of that element of kin-state policy concerned with the Polish minority in Germany. The paper argues that the recent invigoration of kin-state politics cannot be viewed in isolation from wider global political trends. Rather it contends that this increased concern with the fate of claimed ethnic kin is part of a wider trend towards the privileg…

Poland's Kin-State Policies
The violence of culture
This paper considers the ramifications of the fact that a majority of (Jewish) Israeli citizens no longer considers the Israeli military occupation of the Palestinian territory of the West Bank to be an ‘occupation’. Informed by qualitative research conducted in Israel and the occupied territory of the West Bank, the paper argues the case for understanding of this process of social legitimation as being rooted in complex structures of cultural pr…

The Federation of Expellees and the Impact of Memory on German-Polish Relations
This paper seeks to investigate the role played by memory in the Federation of Expellees (Bund der Vertriebenen, BdV) professed attempts to enter into dialogue with Polish society. It also seeks to assess why on occasion mutual recrimination continues to tarnish the wider framework of German-Polish relations and explain the reasons for this phenomenon. The initial focus lies with explaining the continued importance of key, often disputed, element…
Memory, Identity and Poland's German Minority
This paper seeks to offer an assessment of the nature of identity among Poland's German minority and to investigate why since 1950 large numbers of that minority have migrated to Germany. It does so by examining the nature of identity in the historic Polish-German borderlands, by recounting the experiences of those Germans who remained behind in Poland after the post World War Two expulsion process was completed in 1949, and by examining the cont…

"A Foreign Policy Analysis of the "German Question
Taking a constructivist approach to foreign policy analysis and using German policy vis-à-vis Poland and Czechoslovakia/the Czech Republic as an example, we examine Ostpolitik since the 1960s as a case of a norm-driven foreign policy. We argue that the content of Ostpolitik, including changes over time, can be explained by reference to a prevailing norm consensus in Germany about the country's foreign policy toward Central and Eastern Europe, whi…
Germany as a Kin-State
Germany's role as a kin-state of ethnic German minorities in Central and Eastern Europe stems from a number of factors. At one level it is part and parcel of a unique historical legacy. It is also inextricably linked with the country's foreign policy towards this region. The most profound policy that the Federal Republic of Germany developed in this context after the early 1960s was Ostpolitik, which contributed significantly to the peaceful end …
Working Together
The objective of this article is to analyse the pattern and nature of co-operation between the Green parties of the Czech Republic and Germany. Given the disparity in size and political importance of the two parties, initially the article seeks to account for this discrepancy by detailing the very different circumstances in which the two parties came into existence. Similarly, we examine the burden of history that weighs upon contemporary Czech–G…
The past, the present, and virtual reality
This article seeks to examine contemporary perceptions of Heimat held by the various Landsmannschaften (Homeland Organizations) that claim to represent the interests of ethnic German expellees, refugees and subsequent German migrants from the Czech Republic/Czechoslovakia and Poland. The attitudes and standpoints of these organizations are compared with those of the Deutsch-Baltische Landsmannschaft im Bundesgebiet (German-Baltic Homeland Associa…

Ethnic Germans in Poland and the Czech Republic
This paper seeks to analyze the nature of the German minorities in the Czech Republic and Poland. In order to achieve this goal, the relationship between Czechoslovakia/the Czech Republic and Poland with the Bundesrepublik Deutschland (Federal Republic of Germany/FRG) forms an essential intellectual backdrop to our main theme. Reference to the Deutsche Demokratische Republik (German Democratic Republic/GDR) will be made as and where appropriate. …

Germany
Politics and Society in Upper Silesia Today
In 1919, Polish nationalist forces led by Josef Pilsudski succeeded in re-establishing an independent Polish state. Poland had disappeared from the map of Europe in 1794 following the third partition. It had been devoured by its traditional enemies; Prussia, Austria and Russia. Historically, Poland had been a state without fixed borders, and via a combination of changing dynastic alliances and a pattern of eastward migration, from the twelfth cen…

The Role of the Evangelical Church in the GDR
The Evangelical Church Faced Harassment and hostility from the state in the immediate aftermath of the foundation of the German Democratic Republic (GDR) in October 1949. Indeed, the struggle in which the Evangelical Church is today engaged can be seen as both a consequence and continuation of a struggle which began in 1949. The Soviet Union had gained control in 1945 of that part of Germany which was most staunchly Protestant. Initially there wa…
