Description

Robert G. Moeller powerfully conveys the complicated story of how West Germans recast the recent past after the Second World War. He rejects earlier characterizations of a postwar West Germany dominated by attitudes of "forgetting" or silence about the Nazi past. He instead demonstrates the "selective remembering" that took place among West Germans during the postwar years: in particular, they remembered crimes committed against Germans, crimes that-according to some contemporary accounts-were comparable to the crimes of Germans against Jews. Moeller draws on a wide range of U.S. and German government documents, political debates, film archives, letters, oral histories, and newspaper accounts.

Author Biography:

Robert G. Moeller is Professor of History at the University of California, Irvine. His previous books include Protecting Motherhood: Women and the Family in the Politics of Postwar West Germany (California, 1993).
