In the aftermath of World War II, American policymakers turned to the task of rebuilding Europe while keeping communism at bay. In Germany, formally divided since 1949,the United States prioritized the political, economic, and, eventually, military integration of the fledgling Federal Republic with the West. The extraordinary success story of forging this alliance has dominated our historical under-standing of the American-German relationship. Largely left out of the grand narrative of U.S.–German relations were most East Germans who found themselves caught under Soviet and then communist control by the post-1945 geo-political fallout of the war that Nazi Germany had launched. They were the ones who most dearly paid the price for the country's division. This book writes the East Germans—both leadership and general populace—back into that history as objects of American policy and as historical agents in their own rightBased on recently declassified documents from American, Russian, and German archives, this book demonstrates that U.S. efforts from1945 to 1953 went beyond building a prosperous democracy in western Germany and "containing" Soviet-Communist power to the east. Under the Truman and then the Eisenhower administrations, American policy also included efforts to undermine and "roll back" Soviet and German communist control in the eastern part of the country. This story sheds light on a dark-er side to the American Cold War in Germany: propaganda, covert operations, economic pressure, and psychological warfare. Christian F. Ostermann takes an international history approach, capturing Soviet and East German responses and actions, and drawing a rich and complex picture of the early East–West confrontation in the heart of Europe.

Does anyone still believe in Bosnia-Herzogovina or that three years of war (1992-1995) and the following 13 years of uneasy peace have achieved very much? Would fighting break out again if international troops left the area? This film paints a picture of a country that in many ways is still as deeply divided as when the Dayton Accords were signed in 1995. Reasons for pessimism abound. Sarajevo had a reputation as a multi-ethnic, tolerant city but there are signs that it has fallen under the thrall of nationalist Muslims. Only the presence of foreign forces, police and advisors from the UN and the European Union has maintained the fragile balance between Bosnia’s Serb Orthodox, Croat Catholic, and Muslim communities over the dozen years since the civil war. The country has three presidents, one for each community, but the government is riven by crises – often with the same causes as those that sparked off the war.

Description
Heralding the downfall of the Japanese military regime in 1945, the Battle of Okinawa has already been the topic of various documentary and fiction films. However, the history of the guerilla war, fought by Okinawan child soldiers under the command of Japanese officers, is still regarded as taboo. With an acute sense of urgency, this documentary depicts the inhumanity of militaristic ideologies.
