Description du livre
Here is the current, captivating and uncompromising portrait of a great country and its people. Top of the European class, polite, hardworking and rarely at fault, Germany, 20 years after Reunification, has enjoyed at leisure its hitherto well-mastered growth: culture, abundance, a perfected social system.
But something in German identity has recently become strained. The crisis, its geopolitical positions, European failures have shaken it up. Although the world's fourth largest economy, the country sometimes struggles with the failures of its social cohesion, the difficulties of integrating new waves of immigration, and its role as a docile European giant. For the population, which no longer wants to beat itself up because of an overly heavy past, it is time for change and self-assertion. But who exactly are these Germans?
