The Decline of the West - Volume 1 published in 1917, Volume 2 in 1922 - has exercised and challenged opinion ever since. It was a huge undertaking by Oswald Spengler (1880-1936), formerly an unpublished historian and philosopher who set out to radically reconsider history - the rise and fall of world civilisations and their cultures. His primary view was to reject the established Eurocentric paradigm (ancient/classical, Medieval - and, following the Renaissance - modern) and to take a totally new perspective.

Were World Wars I and II–which can now be seen as a thirty-year paroxysm of slaughter and destruction–inevitable? Were they necessary wars? Were the bloodiest and most devastating conflicts ever suffered by mankind fated by forces beyond man’s control? Or were they products of calamitous...

Story39
With Allied armies poised on the banks of the Rhine, Nazi Germany tottered on the brink of collapse. The ensuing battles on German soil - especially those in the so-called Ruhr Pocket - were as fierce and hard-fought as any in the European theater. Going well beyond previous accounts, Derek S. Zumbro chronicles this key military campaign from a unique and fresh perspective - that of the defeated German soldiers and civilians caught in the final maelstrom of the war's Western front.

Famed historian, university professor, and author of the groundbreaking "The Case for Colonialism" Bruce Gilley demonstrates that, contrary to modern presuppositions, German colonialism from its early roots to the mid-twentieth century served overall as a global force for good in the world, elevating the lives of its subjects and encouraging scientific development while allowing native cultures to flourish within its governance.

Deutschland – Deutschland: ein historischer Moment. Selten gibt es Augenblicke in der Geschichte, die wie ein Brennglas wirken. Das einzige Fußballspiel zwischen der DDR und der BRD ist ein solcher herausragender, brisanter und zugleich universaler Moment. Als sich am 22. Juni 1974 für neunzig Minuten die Bruderstaaten gegenübertraten und die DDR durch ein 1:0 von Jürgen Sparwasser den Sieg davontrug, brachten der Zufall und die Zeitläufte Menschen und Ereignisse zusammen, die Einfluss nahmen auf das Leben nicht nur der Beteiligten, sondern auf beide Länder und ihre Menschen.

Story1
In the wake of World War II, the European continent was devastated, and the conflict left the Soviet Union and the United States as uncontested superpowers. This ushered in over 45 years of the Cold War, and a political alignment of Western democracies against the Communist Soviet bloc that produced conflicts pitting allies on each sides fighting. By the 1960s, East Germany was pushing for a solution to the problem of an enclave of freedom within its borders. West Berlin was a haven for highly-educated East Germans who wanted freedom and a better life in the West.

Einleitung - Die unsichtbaren Mauern. Stell dir vor, du wachst in einem Land auf, das gerade einen der monumentalsten Momente seiner Geschichte erlebt hat. Es ist der 9. November 1989, und du stehst vor der Berliner Mauer, die plötzlich ihre unüberwindbare Macht verloren hat. Menschen klettern über die Mauer, tanzen auf ihr, umarmen sich und feiern das Ende einer fast drei Jahrzehnte währenden Trennung. Doch obwohl die Mauer in dieser Nacht gefallen ist, sind die Spuren der Trennung und die Narben der Teilung in den Herzen und Köpfen der Menschen geblieben.

Wie wir uns als Ost- und Westdeutsche im Wahnsinn des Alltags auf das Wesentliche besinnen. Zwischen Konsum- und Selfie-Wahn, Selbstoptimierung, Ichbezogenheit und dem Schwelgen in Luxusproblemen macht Michael Nast deutlich, wie zahlreich die Missverständnisse zwischen Ost und West im Alltag immer noch sind. Heiter, philosophisch und nachdenklich, zeigen uns seine Anekdoten eine Welt, in der das Miteinander immer mehr in den Hintergrund gerät.Wo sind eigentlich die Werte, nach denen wir leben wollen?

This ushered in over 45 years of the Cold War, and a political alignment of Western democracies against the Communist Soviet bloc that produced conflicts pitting allies on each sides fighting, even as the American and Soviet militaries never engaged each other. Though it never got “hot”, the Cold War was a tense era until the dissolution of the USSR, and nothing symbolized the split more than the Berlin Wall.
