Assault On Democracy Communism Fascism And Authoritarianism During The Interwar Years 2021 Kurt Weyland by Kurt Weyland instant download after payment.

Every German who grew up in the post–WWII era faced the impossible
task of coming to grips with our terrible recent past, the massive destruc-
tion and self-destruction, the unspeakable atrocities and crimes. Although
I escaped to the United States and turned to the study of Latin America, it
was unavoidable to return to this task. After I designed my own theoret-
ical approach to political regime change and tested it by examining a
range of other cases in my last two books, I finally felt ready. This study
therefore holds a very deep personal meaning. For this reason, it is
dedicated to my late father, Dr. Helmut Weyland, who grew up during
the interwar years and who at the current age of my sons had already
undergone experiences, as a regular soldier and then a POW, that he
would spend the rest of his life trying to cope with. The book is also
dedicated to my sons, Andreas and Nikolas Weyland, who – decades
later – still live under the shadow of the German past.
