Lange herrschte die Überzeugung vor, dass sich die Erfolgs- und Identitätsgeschichte der Bundesrepublik Deutschland wesentlich einer prosperierenden Ökonomie verdankte und dass der westdeutsche Teilstaat im Schatten des Eisernen Vorhangs zum Profiteur des Kalten Krieges wurde, ohne eine "geistige Vorstellung" seiner selbst zu bedürfen. Konservative und linke Kritiker waren sich einig darin, geringschätzig auf ein "Land ohne Idee" herabzublicken. Diese Sichtweise bedarf einer Korrektur, denn sechzig Jahre Bundesrepublik eröffnen auch eine überzeugende ideenpolitische Perspektive, die über den gesamten Zeitraum seit der Entstehung des Grundgesetzes Konturen gewinnt. In der Rückschau zeigt sich die Entwicklung einer stabilen liberalen Ordnung eigenen Rechts, denn das Wirtschaftswunderland hat durchaus eigenständige politische Ideen hervorgebracht - ob im Hinblick auf eine ordoliberale soziale Ökonomie, diskurstheoretische oder liberalkonservative Begründungen des demokratischen Verfassungsstaates. Die politischen Debatten und Selbstverständigungsdiskurse waren dabei vielfältig und offen. Nicht nur die Auseinandersetzungen mit den Protestbewegungen seit den 1960er Jahren und anlässlich der Wiedervereinigung nahmen Einfluss auf die politische Kultur: Die Ideengeschichte der Bundesrepublik bietet insgesamt eine essentielle "Vorratsreflexion", deren Bestände politischtheoretischen Denkens es angesichts gegenwärtiger Herausforderungen neu zu evaluieren gilt - sei es zur Zukunft des Wohlfahrtsstaats, zu Fragen des Bürgerengagements, der Effizienzsteigerung des politischen Systems, zur politischen Gerechtigkeit oder zur Sicherung bürgerlicher Freiheiten.

During the division of Germany, law became the object of ideological conflicts and the means by which the two national governments conducted their battle over political legitimacy. Legal Entanglements explores how these dynamics produced competing concepts of statehood and sovereignty, all centered on citizens and their rights. Drawing on wide-ranging archival sources, including recently declassified documents, Sebastian Gehrig traces how politicians, diplomats, judges, lawyers, activists and intellectuals navigated the struggle between legal ideologies under the pressures of the Cold War and decolonization. As he shows, in their response to global debates over international law and human rights, their work kept the legal cultures of both German states entangled until 1989.

‘Jürgen Habermas’, wrote the American philosopher Ronald Dworkin on the occasion of the great European thinker’s eightieth birthday, ‘is not only the world’s most famous living philosopher. Even his fame is famous.’ Now, after many years of intensive research and in-depth conversations with contemporaries, colleagues and Habermas himself, Stefan Müller-Doohm presents the first comprehensive biography of one of the most important public intellectuals of our time. From his political and philosophical awakening in West Germany to the formative relationships with Adorno and Horkheimer, Müller-Doohm masterfully traces the major forces that shaped Habermas’s intellectual development. He shows how Habermas’s life and work were conditioned by the possibilities offered to his generation in the unique circumstances of regained freedom that characterized postwar Germany. And yet Habermas’s career is fascinating precisely because it amounts to more than a corpus of scholarly work, however original and influential that may be. For here is someone who continually left the protective space of the university in order to assume the role of a participant in controversial public debates Ð from the significance of the Holocaust to the future of Europe Ð and in this way sought to influence the development of social and political life in an arena much broader than the academy. The significance and virtuosity of Habermas’s many writings over the years are also fully and expertly documented, ranging from his early work on the public sphere to his more recent writings on communicative action, cosmopolitanism and the postnational condition. What emerges from this biography is a vivid portrait of one of the great public intellectuals of our time Ð a unique thinker who has made an immense and lasting philosophical contribution but who, when he perceives that society is not living up to its potential for creating free and just conditions for all, becomes one of its most rigorous and persistent critics.

Germany in the 20th century endured two world wars, a failed democracy, Hitler's dictatorship, the Holocaust, and a country divided for 40 years after World War II. But it has also boasted a strong welfare state, affluence, liberalization and globalization, a successful democracy, and the longest period of peace in European history. A History of Twentieth-Century Germany provides a survey of German history during a century of extremes. Ulrich Herbert sees German history in the 20th century as determined by two contradictory perspectives. On one hand, there are the world wars and great catastrophes that divide the country's history into two parts-before and after 1945. Germany is the birthplace of radical ideologies of the left and right and the only country in which each ideology became the foundation of government. This pattern left its stamp on both the first and second halves of the century. On the other hand, the rise of modern industrial society led to decades of conflict over the social and political order regardless of which political system was in force. Considering these contradictory developments, Herbert tackles the questions of both the collapse in the first half of the century and the development from a post-fascist, ruined society to one of the most stable liberal democracies in the world in the latter half. Herbert's analysis brings together wars and terror, utopia and politics, capitalism and the welfare state, socialism and liberal democratic society, gender and generations, culture and lifestyles, European integration and globalization. The resulting book sets a standard by which historians of the period will be measured in the future.

Democracy, Capitalism, and the Welfare State investigates political thought under the conditions of the postwar welfare state, focusing on the Federal Republic of Germany (1949-1989). The volume argues that the welfare state informed and altered basic questions of democracy and its relationship to capitalism. These questions were especially important for West Germany, given its recent experience with the collapse of capitalism, the disintegration of democracy, and National Socialist dictatorship after 1930. Three central issues emerged. First, the development of a nearly all-embracing set of social services and payments recast the problem of how social groups and interests related to the state, as state agencies and affected groups generated their own clientele, their own advocacy groups, and their own expert information. Second, the welfare state blurred the line between state and society that is constitutive of basic rights and the classic world of liberal freedom; rights became claims on the state, and social groups became integral parts of state administration. Third, the welfare state potentially reshaped the individual citizen, who became wrapped up with mandatory social insurance systems, provisioning of money and services related to social needs, and the regulation of everyday life. Peter C. Caldwell describes how West German experts sought to make sense of this vast array of state programs, expenditures, and bureaucracies aimed at solving social problems. Coming from backgrounds in politics, economics, law, social policy, sociology, and philosophy, they sought to conceptualize their state, which was now social (one German word for the welfare state is indeed Sozialstaat), and their society, which was permeated by state policies.

German Angst analyses the relationship between fear and democracy in postwar West Germany. While fear and anxiety have historically been associated with authoritarian regimes, Frank Biess demonstrates the ambivalent role of these emotions in a democratizing society: in West Germany, fear and anxiety both undermined democracy and stabilized it. By taking seriously postwar Germans' uncertainties about the future, this study challenges dominant linear and teleological narratives of postwar West German 'success', highlighting the prospective function of memories of war, National Socialism, and the Holocaust. Postwar Germans projected fears and anxieties that they derived from memories of a catastrophic past into the future. Based on case studies from the 1940s to the present, German Angst provides a new interpretive synthesis of the Federal Republic. It tells the history of the Federal Republic as a series of cyclical crises in which specific fears and anxieties emerged, served a variety of political functions, and then again abated. Drawing on recent interdisciplinary insights generated by the field of emotion studies, Biess's study transcends the dichotomy of 'reason' and 'emotion'. Fear and anxiety were not exclusively irrational and dysfunctional, but served important roles in postwar democracy. These emotions sensitized postwar Germans to the dangers of an authoritarian transformation, and they also served as emotional engines of new social movements, including the environmental and peace movements. German Angst also provides an original analysis of the emotional basis of right-wing populism in Germany today, and it explores the possibilities of a democratic politics of emotion.

In the past decades the “German-Jewish phenomenon” (Derrida) has increasingly attracted the attention of scholars from various fields: Jewish studies, intellectual history, philosophy, literary and cultural studies, critical theory. In all its complex dimensions, the post-enlightenment German-Jewish experience is overwhelmingly regarded as the most quintessential and charged meeting of Jews with the project of modernity. Perhaps for this reason, from the eighteenth century through to our own time it has been the object of intense reflection, of clashing interpretations and appropriations. In both micro and macro case-studies, this volume engages the multiple perspectives as advocated by manifold interested actors, and analyzes their uses, biases and ideological functions over time in different cultural, disciplinary and national contexts. This volume includes both historical treatments of differing German-Jewish understandings of their experience – their relations to their Judaism, general culture and to other Jews – and contemporary reflections and competing interpretations as to how to understand the overall experience of German Jewry.

Das Buch zielt darauf, die Geschichte der Bundesrepublik Deutschland neu zu vermessen. Nach wie vor dominiert in der Zeitgeschichte eine historische Betrachtungsweise, für die die Grenzen des Staates wie selbstverständlich die Grenzen des Erkenntnisinteresses markieren. In den letzten Jahren jedoch haben mehr und mehr Forschungsprojekte zur Geschichte der Bundesrepublik ihren Gegenstand in einen international vergleichenden Kontext gestellt und transnationalen Aspekten besondere Beachtung geschenkt. Eine Bilanz, wie sich diese neue Herangehensweise auf das Bild der westdeutschen Geschichte seit dem Zweiten Weltkrieg auswirkt, steht noch aus und soll mit dem Sammelband erreicht werden. Dem Vergleich, so macht die Lektüre des Buches deutlich, wohnt auch für die Zeitgeschichte ein hohes Potenzial zur Revision etablierter Narrative inne. So zeigen die Beiträge etwa die Grenzen des Erklärungsmusters einer zunehmenden Annäherung der europäischen Gesellschaften (»Konvergenz«) und setzen an seine Stelle das Bild sich intensivierender Verflechtungen. Im Zuge dessen kommen sie zu einer Neubewertung der lange unterschätzten Handlungsspielräume von Akteuren auf nationaler, lokaler und individueller Ebene. Gleichzeitig entsteht thematisch ein repräsentatives Panorama der bundesdeutschen Geschichte von 1949 bis zur jüngsten Gegenwart, das vom Linksterrorismus der 1970er Jahre über den »Wertewandelsschub« zwischen 1960 und 1980 bis zur Geschichte des Alters und der in den letzten Jahrzehnten wieder zunehmenden sozialen Ungleichheit reicht.
