Content
The regional patchwork, an ancient legacy; the "economic miracle" and its after-strains; daily life - a modernized society re-examines its traditions; Turkish "guest workers" and other immigrants - a painful path towards acceptance; arts and intellectuals - lively activity, but low creativity; the old GDR - daily life under German-style communism; the new east Germany, free but anxious; how stable a democracy?
