About this title: In this study, the author provides a survey of German society in terms of the structure of the different social strata and political institutions, and of the history of democracy in Germany. He unites two themes in an analysis of the central political problem in recent German history - why the liberal democracy as a political principle and system failed until recent times to gain a permanent foothold in the country. The overall result is a book which provides both a detailed analysis of 20th-century Germany society, and offers an original contribution to the theory of democracy.
