How did\u003cbr\u003ethe Germans manage to recover from the shattering experience of defeat in World War II and rehabilitate themselves from the shame and horror of the Holocaust? In \u003cem\u003eAfter Hitler\u003c\/em\u003e, Konrad H. Jarausch shows how Germany's determination to emphasize civility and civil society, destroyed by the Nazi regime, \u003cbr\u003ehelped restore the demoralized nation during the post-war period. Unlike other intellectual inquiries into German efforts to deal with the Nazi past, \u003cem\u003eAfter Hitler\u003c\/em\u003e primarily focuses on the practical lessons a disoriented people drew from their past misdeeds, and their struggle to create a new society\u003cbr\u003ewith a sincere and deep commitment to human rights. \u003cem\u003eAfter Hitler\u003c\/em\u003e offers a comprehensive view of the breathtaking transformation of the Germans from the defeated Nazi accomplices and Holocaust perpetrators of 1945 to the civilized, democratic people of today's Germany.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Konrad H.
