Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book offers an analysis of contemporary German culture and politics in the wake of World War I. The author suggests that Germany's military and economic ascendancy over the preceding decades had its roots in a nationalistic fervor uniquely characteristic of the German people. The author further goes on to argue that the true expression of this enthusiasm can be seen in the nation's advancements in the arts, sciences, city planning, education, industrial cooperation, and general standard of living. This sense of national pride and exceptionalism, the author claims, was the impetus behind Germany's preeminent position in the world prior to the war, and also its undoing. He argues that the country's sense of cultural superiority and exceptionalism led its leaders to pursue a series of disastrous and ultimately destructive policies. Despite the book's particular focus on the period immediately following WWI, the analysis it offers of the German national character and political mindset is still highly relevant to understanding contemporary events and attitudes.
