Story24
For almost four desperate years between 1939 and 1943, British and American navies fought a savage, losing battle against German submarine wolf packs. The Allies might never have turned the tide of that historic battle without an intelligence coup. The race to break the German U-boat codes is one of the last great untold stories of World War II.

Story2
In Kaput, Wolfgang Münchau argues that the weaknesses of Germany's economy have, in fact, been brewing for decades. The neo-mercantilist policies of the German state, driven by close connections between the country's industrial and political elite, have left Germany technologically behind over-reliant on authoritarian Russia and China—and with little sign of being able to adapt to the digital realities of the 21st century. It is an essential read for anyone interested in the future of Europe's biggest economy.

Story0
Edited and with an introduction by philosopher Tom Whyman, this new abridged version The German Ideology sheds new light on one of the most difficult, disputed texts in Marx’s oeuvre. Written in 1846 and subsequently abandoned by Marx and Engels, only to be rescued in the 1930s by researchers in the USSR, The German Ideology is the high point of Marx’s philosophical thought: A brilliantly insightful, still thrillingly radical work of materialist philosophical therapy.

Story1
The German Revolution of November 1918 is nowadays largely forgotten outside Germany. It is generally regarded as a failure even by those who have heard of it, a missed opportunity that paved the way for the rise of the Nazis and the catastrophe to come. Robert Gerwarth argues here that to view the German Revolution in this way is a serious misjudgment. Not only did it bring down the authoritarian monarchy of the Hohenzollern, it also brought into being the first ever German democracy in an amazingly bloodless way.

For nearly a century, historians have depicted Germany as a rabidly nationalist land, born in a sea of aggression. Not so, says Helmut Walser Smith, who, in this groundbreaking 500-year history, challenges traditional perceptions of Germany's conflicted past, revealing a nation far more thematically complicated than 20th-century historians have imagined.

Story3
In 1832, 17-year-old Otto von Bismarck had just entered university and was already rejecting the republican indoctrination of his grade school years. Unlike so many of his day who had championed representative government, Bismarck longed for the glory of a nation he believed would only be found under a single, strong leader. Though his early university days showed him he would be isolated by this thinking, he strongly believed not only in the ideal of a national German state, but in its possibility.

Sir Winston Churchill (1874 – 1965), Sohn einer alten englischen Adelsfamilie, britischer Premier und Nobelpreisträger für Literatur, hat schon viele Historiker beschäftigt. Churchill, der sich bereits in den dreißiger Jahren zur stärksten politischen Persönlichkeit Englands entwickelte, wurde im Zweiten Weltkrieg eine Art lebendiges Symbol des nationalen Widerstands und einer der großen Heroen der Anti-Hitler-Koalition. Seit 1946 gab er dank seines internationalen Ansehens wichtige Impulse zur Schaffung des Nordatlantik-Paktes und zur wirtschaftlichen und politischen Einigung Europas.

Story1
In this classic work of twentieth-century history, William Sheridan Allen demonstrates how dictatorship subtly surmounted democracy in Germany and how the Nazi seizure of power encroached from below. Relying upon legal records and interviews with primary sources, Allen dissects Northeim, Germany with microscopic precision to depict the transformation of a sleepy town to a Nazi stronghold. This cogent analysis argues that Hitler rose to power primarily through democratic tactics that incited localized support rather than through violent means.

Wer den Einfluss verstehen will, den China auf die deutsche Wirtschaft ausübt, muss den Namen Gerhard Ludwig Flatow kennen. Er war wohlhabender Stahldirektor und Kommunist, Abenteurer und Lobbyist, sprach fließend chinesisch und wurde in den Fünfziger und Sechziger Jahren zum wichtigsten Agenten der Chinesen in Deutschland. Dabei hat er es verstanden, völlig unbekannt zu bleiben–bis der Wirtschaftspublizist und Chinakenner Bernd Ziesemer die Fäden zusammenführte und entdeckte, dass ein Maoist und ein Industrieller ein und dieselbe Person waren.

Aber was ist mit den Grünen, deren klimaneutral moralisierende Besserwisserei mit Hang zum Staatsdirigismus längst zur Bedrohung des Wirtschaftsstandorts Deutschland geworden war? Gar mit der SPD, die eben noch gar nicht wusste, wo ihr der Kopf steht und ihn deshalb in den Treibsand vergangener Klassenkampfzeiten steckte?

Sicherheitspolitik hat Konjunktur – sie befindet sich jedoch auf einem gefährlichen Irrweg. Der Begriff „Kriegstüchtigkeit“ steht für diese Entwicklung wie kaum ein anderer. Das dahinterstehende Konzept beansprucht unverhältnismäßige Ressourcen, militarisiert Politik und Gesellschaft und löst die Probleme nicht. Der derzeit weitverbreitete Alarmismus in weiten Teilen der Politik und der Medien basiert zudem auf keiner seriösen Bedrohungsanalyse. Der in 80 Jahren überwunden geglaubte Militarismus scheint schleichend und oft sogar mit guten Absichten in einem neuen Gewand zurückzukehren.
