Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Staging West German Democracy examines how political founding discourses of the nascent Federal Republic (FRG) were reflected, reinforced, and actively manufactured by the Federal government in conjunction with the West German, state-controlled newsreel system, the Deutsche Wochenschau. By looking at the institutional history of the Deutsche Wochenschau and its close relationship to the Federal Press Office, Jan Uelzmann traces the Adenauer administrations project of maintaining a government channel in an increasingly diverse, de-centralized, and democratic West German media landscape. Staging West German Democracy reconstructs the companys integral role in the planning, production, and dissemination of pro-government PR, and through detailed analyses reveals the films to celebrate the FRG as an economically successful and internationally connected democracy under Adenauers leadership. Apart from providing election propaganda for Adenauers CDU party, these films provided an important stabilizing factor for the FRGs project of explaining and promoting democracy to its citizens, and of defining its public image against the backdrops of the Third Reich past and a competing, contemporary incarnation of German nationhood, the German Democratic Republic (GDR). In this regard, Staging West German Democracy adds in important ways to our understanding of the medias role in the West German nation building process. This item is printed on demand.
