English summary: The West of the Roman Empire experienced a chain of dramatic events and development from 396 AD onwards. The last Western emperor was deposed in 476 AD and Justinian abolished the Western Roman court in 554 AD. These events, which mark the transition from antiquity to the Middle Ages in Europe, are often explained by a "civic migration". However, this book, by contrast, highlights internal Roman conflicts: Western Rome was not conquered. Its successive empires only superseded the authority of the imperial government, when endless civil wars had led to the collapse of Roman rule. A systematic overview of Empire, administration, army, economy and religion completes the presentation. German description: Der Westen des Imperium Romanum erlebte ab 395 n. Chr. eine Kette von dramatischen Ereignissen und Entwicklungen. 476 wurde der letzte Westkaiser abgesetzt, 554 schaffte Justinian auch den westromischen Hof ab. Diese Vorgange, die fur Europa den Ubergang von der Antike zum Mittelalter markieren, sind oft durch eine "Volkerwanderung" erklart worden. Der vorliegende Band ruckt dagegen innerromische Konflikte ins Zentrum: Westrom wurde nicht erobert. Seine Nachfolgereiche traten erst an die Stelle der kaiserlichen Regierung, als endlose Burgerkriege zum Kollaps der romischen Herrschaft gefuhrt hatten. Ein systematischer Uberblick uber Kaisertum, Verwaltung, Armee, Wirtschaft und Religion rundet die Darstellung ab.
