This book represents a much-needed reappraisal of Germany between the wars, examining the political, social and economic aims of the new republic, their failure and how they led to Nazism and eventually the Second World War. The author includes: * an examination of the legacy of the First World War and the Treaty of Versailles * discussion of the early years of crisis culminating in the Ruhr Invasion and the Dawes Settlement * assessment of the leadership of Stresemann and Bruning * exploration of the circumstances leading to the rise of Hitler * an outline of the historiography of the Weimar Republic.

The Origins of the Second World War analyses the reasons for the outbreak of the Second World War, one of the most controversial historical topics.

This essential new introduction examines why there are still so few women political leaders. It highlights, in particular, the continuing absence of women from leadership positions, and the concentration of women on social-welfare panels.
