Description

The present volume makes an important contribution to the analysis of the political scene in Germany in the years since the end of the Cold War, pointing out dangers to democracy primarily from the Right but also from the Left. It is a contribution to scholarship that these important articles which appeared in a variety of journals are now accessible to a broader public.
