Book excerpt: Abstract: As the First World War was coming to an end, the German monarchy was collapsing. Various factions and members of the German Reichstag were scrambling to replace the recently abdicated Kaiser and restore some amount of order to the German state. In the following weeks, the Socialist Democratic Party (SPD) would gradually consolidate its grip on power and form a new government. Months later a general strike was declared in Berlin and hundreds of thousands of workers flooded the streets. Rosa Luxemburg and other prominent members of the Spartacists--far left defectors from the SPD--were initially opposed to the strike, but soon saw it as an opportunity to overthrow the SPD government. The Spartacists and like-minded radicals from the Independent Social Democratic Party (USPD) managed to assume control over the general strike, but could not agree upon its ultimate goal. Workers filled the streets, waiting for direction from the party leaders, but none came. Under the command of the SPD, Freikorps officers (demobilized, armed veterans of WWI) attacked strikers, killing hundreds and ultimately ending the uprising. Shortly afterwards, Spartacist leaders Karl Liebknecht and Rosa Luxemburg were captured, tortured and killed, their bodies abandoned in different parts of the city. Through examination of the writings and personal documents of Rosa Luxemburg, I have been attempting to discover what led her to participate in the uprising which ultimately led to her death. As part of my research, I visited the Hoover Institution at Stanford University to view their Rosa Luxemburg collection. The Institution's holdings include a substantial amount of Luxemburg's letters and other ephemera, which help to explain the political climate of the time and elucidate the meanings behind her actions in her last days.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The tangled affairs in Bavaria at the close of World War I constitute a unique and important part of the early Weimar Republic.

Book excerpt: Discover the remarkable history of the German Revolution of 1918...The brief history of the Weimar Republic is generally seen as an abbreviated intermission between the First and Second World Wars. It was the government, led by the Social Democratic Party, which took power, albeit with some trepidation, after Kaiser Wilhelm II abdicated the German throne. Socialists saw this as the opportunity they had been waiting for, the day when workers would be the ones in power. For the conservatives who could not accept the German defeat in World War I, however, the Weimar Republic was a feeble entity which had capitulated to Germany's enemies. The German Revolution of 1918-1919 told the story of a bruised nation attempting to overcome its military defeat at the hands of enemies who wanted to punish Germany for starting the war. Because Germany was caught in the vise of such irreconcilable political philosophies between the left and the right, the Weimar Republic, although it was the ruling power following the German Revolution, was destined to have a doomed, short life in Germany's tragic twentieth-century history. Discover a plethora of topics such as Sacrificing for the Fatherland The German Spring Offensive The Seeds of Revolution The Christmas Crisis Rosa Luxemburg and the Spartacist Uprising The End of the Revolution And much more!

Download or read book The Weimar Republic written by Detlev Peukert and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 1993-09 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: About half of Kolb's compact book is devoted to a "Historical Survey," chronologically divided at the conventional watersheds of 1923-24 and 1929-30. A briefer second part, a historiographical essay in seven topical chapters, is followed by a seven-page chronology, a 676-item classified and topical bibliography, and an index. The bibliography, updated to February 1987, includes some English-language titles not in the original German edition, and is a list of tremendous value. Frequent references to individual entries (as well as to some works not found there) tie the bibliography to the historiographical essay, which is characterized by fair and judicious appraisal of interpretations of the period, even when Kolb clearly disagrees. There is a chapter on the revolution of 1918 and its aftermath in the first section, and one on art and mass culture in the second; each section of the survey also has one chapter focusing on foreign policy, and one on domestic developments.
Download or read book Working Class Politics in the German Revolution written by Ralf Hoffrogge and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2014-09-11 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Richard Müller, a leading figure of the German Revolution in 1918, is unknown today. As the operator and unionist who represented Berlin’s metalworkers, he was main organiser of the ‘Revolutionary Stewards’, a clandestine network that organised a series of mass strikes between 1916 and 1918. With strong support in the factories, the Revolutionary Stewards were the driving force of the Revolution. By telling Müller's story, this study gives a very different account of the revolutionary birth of the Weimar Republic. Using new archival sources and abandoning the traditional focus on the history of political parties, Ralf Hoffrogge zooms in on working class politics on the shop floor and its contribution to social change. First published in German by Karl Dietz Verlag as Richard Müller - Der Mann hinter der November Revolution, Berlin, 2008, this english edition was completerly revised for the english speaking audience and contains new sources and recent literature.
