Description: "This is the first German-specific methodology book for scholars, undergraduates and postgraduates in German and European Studies." "Approaches to the study of contemporary Germany reviews the key disciplinary approaches from both an Anglo-American and a German perspective. A discussion of the main themes, debates and methodological approaches to the study of contemporary Germany in the areas of history, cultural studies, economics, political science and international relations is accompanied by two interdisciplinary contributions on interpretations of the GDR (and its demise) and the key debates on Germany's power in Europe."--Jacket.
