Modern Germany cover

Modern Germany: A Global History places Germany in a global and transnational context, while offering a broad scope of chronological and thematic coverage. The authors present German-speaking lands in relation to the rest of the world, rather than as discrete entities, bringing global and transnational linkages and interdependencies into focus.

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
