1. 1. Willy Brandt

   

   Traces the life and career of a central postwar German statesman, from exile during the Nazi era and wartime resistance to his rise as mayor of West Berlin and chancellor of the Federal Republic; it emphasizes his pragmatic pursuit of Ostpolitik and détente with Eastern Europe, the international recognition that followed, and the political and personal crises—most notably the spy scandal—that forced his resignation, while assessing his complex legacy for German democracy and reconciliation.
