Xenophobia in United Germany examines not only xenophobic expression in Germany but also its relation to the broader phenomenon of racism and xenophobia in western industrial societies. In this theoretical and factual study, the author employs a long association with East and West German youth researchers, as well as data gained from his own extensive travels and interviews with East German anti-violence youth workers. What emerges is a comprehensive analysis of formerly suppressed East German studies of anti-foreigner hostility and neo-nazism, comparative studies that show differences between East and West German youth after four decades of separation and national surveys conducted in the early years of unification that show patterns of anti-foreigner and anti-Semitic sentiment among East and West Germans.
