About the Book

This book is a sharp analysis of Germany's old and new strategies. It explains in great detail why Germany suddenly drifted to the right wing and even gave up its postwar modest foreign policy in order to join the bellecists fraction. The book also reveals hidden agendas and lays open the deep crisis Germany is in since the Social Democratic-Green government of Gerhard Schröder has assumed power, relying on neo-liberal economic, social and cultural reforms while on the horizon a new charismatic rightist leader is flexing his muscles. "We might not know his name yet, but it is certain that he will steal power once the red-green coalition has crashed against the concrete wall," says the author, Ralph T. Niemeyer, who is known for provoking controversies as he criticizes his country's course from a liberal but so far unheard viewpoint. This book is a must for anyone who wants to understand Germany's ambitions.
