Perspectives on a Stable State

by William E Paterson, Gordon R Smith ...

First Published in 1981. The essential stability of the Federal German Republic was once more confirmed by the outcome of the 1980 election.

Yet 'stability' is not an immobile condition, and since it results from the interaction of a number of factors - ... Read more

German Europe

by Ulrich Beck ...

Translated by Rodney Livingstone ...

The euro crisis is tearing Europe apart. But the heart of the matter is that, as the crisis unfolds, the basic rules of European democracy are being subverted or turned into their opposite, bypassing parliaments, governments and EU institutions. Multilateralism is turning into unilateralism, equality into hegemony, sovereignty into the dependency and recognition into disrespect for the dignity of ... Read more

Weimar Germany

by Anthony McElligott ...

Series series Short Oxford History of Germany
The Weimar Republic was born out of Germany's defeat in the First World War and ended with the coming to power of Hitler and his Nazi Party in 1933. In many ways, it is a wonder that Weimar lasted as long as it did. Besieged from the outset by hostile forces, the young republic was threatened by revolution from the left and coups d'états from the right. Plagued early on by a wave of high-profile ... Read more

Constitutional Law in Weimar Germany and the French Fifth Republic

by Cindy Skach ...

After the collapse of communism, some thirty countries scrambled to craft democratic constitutions. Surprisingly, the constitutional model they most often chose was neither the pure parliamentary model found in most of Western Europe at the time, nor the presidential model of the Americas. Rather, it was semi-presidentialism--a rare model known more generally as the "French type." This ... Read more
