Abstract

Reference is made to two events that are interrelated. The first, widely discussed throughout the world today, is the end of the bipolar system. This structure, which spread from Europe to the world, has been gradually loosened by a number of events that have undermined, on the one hand, the sense of ideological cohesion in the East, and consequently the sense of immediate danger in the West; and on the other hand, the sense of absolute protection that North American power inspired in Western Europe. The second are the effects that this fact has produced in Germany, on the Federal Republic, its citizens and its national politics, a new awakening of the sense of a German national identity and the consequent search directed towards an independent national policy among the Germans of the Federal Republic.
