Recenzii
Modern Germany is superior in its comprehensive, cultural, interdisciplinary, international approach. If you are teaching survey courses in German history and/or culture, it will benefit your students more than any other book on the market."-Bernd Schaefer, George Washington University
Modern Germany more intentionally places Germany in a global and transnational context, while offering a broad scope of chronological and thematic coverage."-David G. Tompkins, Carleton College
I find the synthesis of both recent and classic scholarship exemplary. The authors have gracefully woven in historiographic debates and all the topics seem highly appropriate and interesting. Individual voices and lives of key personalities have been brought in as well, so it's not only about structures, but also lived experience. The writing is first-rate."-Vejas Gabriel Liulevicius, University of Tennessee
The text weaves in more current scholarship and themes (place of regionalism, role of outsiders, relationship of Germany to the world) without sacrificing more traditional themes."-Christopher Fischer, Indiana State University
"Modern Germany. A Global History" is a valuable teaching tool despite the weaknesses mentioned. As a didactically well thought-out and richly illustrated compendium, it introduces students-not only in the Anglo-American language area-to a subject area that is also the subject of books that are also worth reading, but which do not make any decidedly pedagogical claims. "Modern Germany. A Global History" offers a good basis for confronting students with the complex contexts in which German-speaking Central Europe has been constituted, while at the same time promoting their critical understanding of history and teaching them how to question established narratives. But whether Germany was or is "modern" remains a question to which students should probably find the answer themselves.
