30 JUL 2024 · Join us into a profound discussion with Dr Molly O'Neal, examining the shifting dynamics of Germany’s foreign and security policy amidst recent geopolitical upheavals. Our guest offers an insightful presentation of her work, addressing critical questions that explore the concept of 'Zeitenwende' and its implications for Germany's international stance.
We begin by unpacking 'Zeitenwende' and how recent geopolitical shifts, particularly Russia’s actions in Ukraine, have challenged Germany’s traditional approach to foreign and security policy. Our conversation highlights Germany's struggle to reconcile its historical “culture of restraint” with the urgent need for a more assertive defense strategy. We explore whether these new demands are in conflict with Germany’s longstanding identity as a “civilian power.”
The discussion moves to Germany's embedded identity in promoting European integration and how this shapes its responses to crises like the one in Ukraine. We examine the broader implications of Germany's actions for the EU's overall strategy and unity.
Furthermore, we consider how domestic political changes within Germany are influencing its foreign policy approach, particularly with the rise of various political forces. This segment provides a nuanced understanding of the internal factors shaping Germany's external policies.
Lastly, we look ahead to the future, contemplating the policy measures Germany must consider to maintain its role as a reliable partner within Europe and NATO.
