Summary

An introduction to the political history of the Weimar Republic. The failure, in the years after the First World War, of German democracy was of crucial importance to the world as a whole. Very often the causes of this failure have been sought in the national character of the Germans, in their historical development, in the nature of Western capitalism, in the weaknesses of the Republic constitution, and sometimes in the hypnotic power of Adolf Hitler. While some of these explanations are more respectable than others, none alone can satisfy any serious enquiry.
