What is German history? Where did it take place? And what role did Germans living outside of Central Europe play in it? This polycentric history offers a new vision: It uses communities of Germans, from Austria to Chile to Russia, to rethink our narratives of modern German history. Focusing on the great plurality of Germans, and their interconnections around the world, it pointedly de-centers the nation-state while arguing that resisting its dominance in our historical narratives has high intellectual and political stakes. Within an unbound German history, there are characteristics, clues, models, and precedents that can do much to undermine the return of violent, exclusionary nationalism. To that end, this book calls for greater integration of mobilities, migration flows, different ways of belonging, and transcultural places into our narratives of Germans' histories. Ultimately, it reveals how embracing a range of narratives can help us to better understand people's actions, intentions, and motivations in particular historical moments.

Few countries have caused or experienced more calamities in the twentieth century than Germany. The country emerged from the Cold War as a newly united and sovereign state, eventually becoming Europe's indispensable partner for all major domestic and foreign policy initiatives. This Oxford Handbook of German Politics provides a comprehensive overview of some of the major issues of German domestic politics, economics, foreign policy, and culture by leading experts in their respective fields. This book serves primarily as a reference work on Germany for scholars and an interested public, but through this broader lens, it also provides a magnifying glass of global developments, which are challenging and transforming the modern state.

This book delves into Germany's multifaceted spatial, social, cultural, and demographic landscapes, emphasizing the interconnected relationships between different spatial development levels. Historical context is provided to understand the evolution of spatially relevant concepts related to politics, landscapes, and culture. The text highlights the significance of divergence and convergence, shedding light on the intricate web of spatial and social changes in Germany. It employs a neopragmatic approach, uniting various theoretical perspectives and enabling independent regional geographic studies. Case studies explore issues like structural transformation in industrial areas (e.g., the Ruhr region) and Berlin's role as the unified Germany's capital. Ultimately, the book demonstrates how theory-driven regional geographic research elucidates the complexities of time and space.
