| Résumé: | In Energy and Power, Stephen G. Gross offers the first comprehensive history of German energy and climate policy from World War II to the present. He shows how debates over energy profoundly shaped the course of German history and influenced the landmark developments that define modern Europe. Moving beyond conventional economic theory, this book gives a novel explanation for why energy transitions happen. Further, it provides a powerful lens to move beyond conventional debates on Germany's East-West divide, or its postwar engagement with the Holocaust, to explore how this nation has shaped the contemporary world in other important ways. |
