Central to this issue is a problem which soured relations between the Federal Republic and its allies from the 1950s to the 1970s: who was to bear the enormous cost of British and American troops in Germany? Both Washington and London identified this cost as a major reason for the decline of their currencies, whereas Germany reluctantly paid and traded 'Money for Security'; a fundamental pattern of its postwar foreign policy. The interweaving of money and security leads toward a more complete understanding of transatlantic history during the Cold War, one which provides an incisive comment on the pattern of simultaneous conflict and cooperation in the interaction of modern states, demonstrates the influence of domestic politics on foreign policies, and comments on the relative nature of American hegemony.Publications of the German Historical Institute.GermanyMilitary relationsUnited StatesUnited StatesMilitary relationsGermanyGermanyMilitary relationsGreat BritainGreat BritainMilitary relationsGermanyGermanyArmed ForcesAppropriations and expendituresUnited StatesArmed ForcesAppropriations and expendituresGreat BritainArmed ForcesAppropriations and expenditures337.43Zimmermann Hubert1123930MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910818095303321Money and security3976901UNINA
