| Sumario: | "Facing the Nazi Past provides a compelling insight into a nation coming to terms with the horrors of its history. Since the unification of East and West Germany in 1990, contrasting perspectives on the past have fuelled the seemingly incessant debate on the Third Reich in Germany." "Looking at the different ways that East and West Germans have remembered the 1930s and 40s, Niven argues that the unification of Germany has helped its people confront the past more openly. Changes at concentration camp memorial sites, the commemoration of 8 May 1945, and the image of resistance to Hitler in united Germany are just some of the factors that have helped to shape a new perspective on the past." "Facing the Nazi Past reflects on the most important developments and debates affecting the way united Germany remembers its past today. This timely account is set to provoke fresh discussion of this dramatic historical period."--Jacket |
