  • Ge13 Course Information and Reading List 1. Contemporary
    Ge13 Course Information and Reading List 1. Contemporary German politics The opening of the Berlin Wall in 1989 and the reunification of Germany in 1990 transformed the landscape of German politics and generated a mass of unforeseen problems, many of which are only now beginning to be resolved. Fundamental were the problems of integrating the Länder of the former GDR into the political system of the Federal Republic, the socio- economic and political legacy of the GDR, the question of the identity and self-image of the newly reunited Germany. Equally important were the implications of reunification for Germany’s position in the European Union and for the development of Germany’s relations with the wider world, the latter in ways which shaped the German government’s response to the world crisis triggered by the events of 11 September 2001. The changes of government from Helmut Kohl’s CDU/CSU coalition to Gerhard Schröder’s SPD/Green coalition in 1998 both underlined continuities and signalled new beginnings. The emergence of Angela Merkel at the head of a grand coalition in 2005 and then of a CDU/CSU/FDP coalition from 2009 was accompanied by a growing self- confidence of the Berlin Republic which was evident in the celebration of the twentieth anniversary of ‘Die Wende’ in 2009-10 and the twenty-fifth anniversary in 2015-16. However, just when it seemed that the ‘German question’ had finally been answered the European financial crisis, the refugee crisis, the emergence of a strident right-wing populist party (the Alternative für Deutschland), and the Brexit crisis have created new problems that remain unresolved as Germany faces life after Merkel.

    Narrating Violent Crime and Negotiating Germanness: The Print News Media and the National Socialist Underground (NSU), 2000-2012 by JOSEFIN GRAEF A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of Political Science and International Studies (POLSIS) School of Government and Society College of Social Sciences University of Birmingham October 2016 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

ABSTRACT This thesis examines how the German print news media negotiate notions of Germanness by narrating the acts of violent crime committed by the right-wing extremist group National Socialist Underground (NSU) between 2000 and 2011. Combining Paul Ricœur’s textual hermeneutics with insights from narrative criminology as well as violence and narrative media studies, I approach the NSU as a narrative puzzle. I thereby investigate how the media narrate a murder series of nine men with a migration background, a nail bomb attack in a Turkish-dominated street and an (attempted) murder of two police officers. I compare the narratives constructed both before and after the identification of the perpetrators in November 2011.

  • The Lasting Legacy of the Red Army Faction
    WEST GERMAN TERROR: THE LASTING LEGACY OF THE RED ARMY FACTION Christina L. Stefanik A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS August 2009 Committee: Dr. Kristie Foell, Advisor Dr. Christina Guenther Dr. Jeffrey Peake Dr. Stefan Fritsch ii ABSTRACT Dr. Kristie Foell, Advisor In the 1970s, West Germany experienced a wave of terrorism that was like nothing known there previously. Most of the terror emerged from a small group that called itself the Rote Armee Fraktion, Red Army Faction (RAF). Though many guerrilla groupings formed in West Germany in the 1970s, the RAF was the most influential and had the most staying-power. The group, which officially disbanded in 1998, after five years of inactivity, could claim thirty- four deaths and numerous injuries The death toll and the various kidnappings and robberies are only part of the RAF's story. The group always remained numerically small, but their presence was felt throughout the Federal Republic, as wanted posters and continual public discourse contributed to a strong, almost tangible presence. In this text, I explore the founding of the group in the greater West German context. The RAF members believed that they could dismantle the international systems of imperialism and capitalism, in order for a Marxist-Leninist revolution to take place. The group quickly moved from words to violence, and the young West German state was tested. The longevity of the group, in the minds of Germans, will be explored in this work.

  • Gert Levy, Cologne: Lecture Cambridge (Violence and Militancy from '68 to the G20) First, I Would Like to Thank You for Inviti
    [trl – v02 – pp 1-7] Gert Levy, Cologne: Lecture Cambridge (Violence and Militancy from ‘68 to the G20) First, I would like to thank you for inviting me here to speak on the subject. Title and topic go far beyond what can be covered exhaustively within 30 minutes. I am currently inundated with articles and reports on the so called “German Autumn” (Deutscher Herbst) of 1977. Perusing these publications, I get emotionally submerged in that time there and then, reconnecting with my feelings and memories; my ambivalences towards violence in politics as well as power and morality. Just a short while ago my wife and I watched a documentary about the music festival on the Isle of White. The concert took place only one year after Woodstock and ended in drugs and violence. “Love and Peace” had transformed into drug dependency and violence. Thesis I. We failed in our attempt to build a counterworld of love and equality. “There is no real life in the wrong one.” Let me begin with a quotation in retrospect: In his book “CheShaShit”, published 1984, the journalist Klaus Hartung wrote about the transitional period between the 60s and 70s, their different sentiments and contents. ”The no-protest zone in front of the Schöneberg municipality was breached, a ‘demonstration of stewards’ (alternating between 100 stewards and a single demonstrator) was organised, was declared a ‘walking demonstration’ when demonstrating on Ku’Damm [West Berlin’s foremost boulevard] was disallowed, throwing paint-filled eggs at the Amerika Haus, then there was the Pudding Assassination of [US Vice-President] Humphrey – nothing, however, would be more wrong than seeing primarily softish approaches therein.

It is argued that this issue is complicated by the different meanings associated with the term* terrorism. Three main meanings of the term are identified: a normative usage treating terrorism as violence without humanitarian constraints; its association with the lowest level of violent conflict; and a usage that treats terrorism as in practice co-terminus with assaults on the Vest. An examination of the most common generalisations about terrorism to be found in the literature follows. The use of the term in different contexts is highlighted by case studies of Vest Germany and Northern Ireland.
