Summary/Abstract

THIRTY-TWO years ago, an event took place that American political scientist Francis Fukuyama claimed marked the "end of history." It was argued that the disappearance of the Soviet Union from the world political scene and the end of the Soviet socialist project meant that there was no socioeconomic alternative to a liberal capitalist world order - a system that puts the individual above society and private business above national interests and gives overconsumption priority over progress.

German Predicament: The Red Lines of the Security and Defence Policy of the Berlin Republic / Meiers, Franz-Josef

Summary/Abstract

The election of Angela Merkel as the first female Chancellor of Germany does not herald a fundamental transformation of Germany's security and defence policy but marks a high degree of continuity with the policies of the red-green government. The double challenge facing the Merkel government is its readiness to back up the country's institutional and material commitments to both NATO and EU by concrete deeds and to reconcile the ever bigger external demands with the country's culture of reticence. To bring these competing external and internal demands into a lasting equilibrium is the true challenge to the systematic scientist's approach of Chancellor Merkel. To the disappointment of some allies and partners, this highly demanding task may prove again like trying to square the circle.
