This book was originally published in 1987, at a time when the future of a divided Germany went to the heart of East-West relations and European security. These essays examine the role of Germany in international politics, and shows how the 'German question' could continue to affect East-West relations and the politics of the Western alliance in the future. The contributors address such crucial questions as the existence, or otherwise, of a West German 'secret agenda' in its relations with the East; they ask about the relationship between the GDK and strict Soviet foreign policy interests; whether changes in Germany would lead to change in the central European system; and where West German commitment to unification would lead.

The contributors examine the East-West Germany relations as well as the role of Germany in international politics.
