Ebook: Deutschland – Image und Imaginäres: Zur Dynamik der nationalen Identifizierung nach 1990

This study examines the mechanisms and processes by which an image of Germany was constructed by examining literary texts, films, a business location initiative, and a media debate. It reveals that the power of these self-images lies specifically in their openness. Images of Germany do not point to an identity that is meant to be static, but instead, document the truly dynamic structure of identification.
