The Weimar Republic. A Democracy (en Inglés) - Lisa Pine;Peter C. Caldwell;Christopher Dillon

This concise examination of the Weimar Republic synthesizes the key debates and scholarship in the field for a student audience. Providing extensive coverage of the increasingly prominent topics of gender, sexuality and popular culture, Christopher Dillon offers an up-to-date account of the Republic that moves beyond a Berlin-centric approach to a more holistic presentation of Germany during the period. The text is also rich with pedagogical features, including key terms text boxes, a glossary and numerous statistics and illustrations.

Beginning with the November 1918 revolution, The Weimar Republic argues that the stories Germans told one another about the past war were more important to the course of the Weimar Republic than the history of the First World War itself. It also pulls away from any conclusions about the Republic that are sometimes drawn in the shadow of the Nazi party's subsequent rise. In doing so, the book casts crucial common misconceptions aside, enabling you to more fully understand the Weimar Republic in its own context in the process.
