Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book uncovers the genesis of German docility, a national characteristic that has profoundly shaped the nation's political and social development. The author traces the origins of this obedience and submissiveness to the tribal and feudal traditions of Germany's past. The book examines how this docility has manifested itself throughout German history, particularly in the rise of Prussian militarism and the subsequent unification of Germany under Prussian leadership. The author argues that the German people's willingness to obey authority has both advantages and drawbacks, allowing for strong leadership and national unity but also fostering a culture of blind obedience and suppression of dissent. Ultimately, the book sheds light on the complex and often paradoxical nature of German character, providing insights into the historical and cultural forces that have shaped the nation.
