| Sommario/riassunto: | This volume explores narratives of Germany in the United States, with a particular focus on the post-World War II period. It examines how a wide range of actors - including special interest groups and U.S. and West German policymakers - sought to deploy representations of Germany to influence public opinion and achieve their domestic and foreign policy objectives. The book analyzes cultural artifacts such as popular books, films, and television shows to reveal how narratives about the Third Reich and Cold War Germany were manufactured, contested, and co-opted as rival viewpoints competed for legitimacy. |
