Amazon.com description: Product Description: This edition has a new introduction and a revised first chapter to incorporate recent perceptions and arguments on the basic character of the Kaiserreich that emerged especially during the 1980s. The basis of this study by V.R. Berghahn is his contention that the years immediately preceding World War I saw the genesis and collapse of the precise and ambitious plan to secure for Germany "a place in the sun" in the 20th century.

Britain's role here is seen as being of special importance - from 1905 onwards she engaged the Reich in a naval arms race which it was beyond the capacity of the German monarchy to sustain.
