The new issue of the Journal of Contemporary History features an article on 'Germany’s Postwar Re-education and Its Weimar Intellectual Roots' by Udi E. Greenberg: 'Historians have often observed the intrusion by the USA into German intellectual and institutional life as part of the USA’s overall plan to "re-educate" Germany and to tie it to its own political traditions and Cold War goals. Through examination of the political theories and academic educational reforms of Carl J. Friedrich, one of the most important intellectuals of the Cold War, this article argues that US policies were simultaneously shaped and determined by intellectual traditions from the Weimar period.'
