About the Author:
Otto L. Bettmann is the founder of the famed Bettmann Archive in New York, one of the world’s great picture libraries. Its resources, some three million prints and photographs, are used all over the world by publishers, educators, ad men and the audio-visual media.
Expelled during the Nazi regime from his post as Curator of Rare Books at the Prussian State Art Library in Berlin, Dr. Bettmann came to America in 1935 where he established the Archive and became widely known as a graphic historian. Among his previous publications are As We Were: Family Life in America, A Pictorial History of Medicine, Our Literary Heritage (with Van Wyck Brooks) and The Bettmann Portable Archive. Dr. Bettmann died in 1998.

Book Description Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Der Historiker Günter Benser analysiert die Vorgänge 1989/90 aus zeitgenössischen Quellen. Nüchtern und objektiv, präzise wie emotionslos. Die Befunde sind was fürs Geschichtsbuch Das ist ein Irrtum. Die Vorgänge haben im Osten Wunden gerissen. Diese sind noch lange nicht vernarbt, sie sind offen. Und werden es auch bleiben, solange keine andere Politik betrieben wird. Der Blick auf den Osten ist westdeutsch, die Behandlung der Ostdeutschen zeugt von Ignoranz und Arroganz. Dieser Ost-West-Konflikt hat seine Ursache nicht in der DDR, die vor nunmehr fast drei Jahrzehnten unterging, sondern im Wesentlichen in einer seit sieben Jahrzehnten in der BRD vorherrschenden Weltsicht. 200 pp. Deutsch.
