A landmark work of political history, A History of the German Republic chronicles the turbulent rise and fall of the Weimar Republic from its revolutionary origins in 1918 to its collapse under the weight of political extremism and economic crisis. Arthur Rosenberg, a former professor of history at the University of Berlin and a contemporary witness to the events he describes, presents a sharp, analytically rigorous account of Germany's first experiment with democracy. The narrative details the fierce ideological struggles between socialist factions, conservative nationalists, and the ascending forces of fascism that ultimately doomed the republic. Written with the authority of an insider and the precision of a trained historian, this work remains an indispensable primary source for understanding the Weimar era and the conditions that gave rise to National Socialism.
