The author examines the two new strategies of mastering the German past: one which relativizes and denies the singularity of the Holocaust by reducing it to a phenomenon of the age of tyrants and a second more sophisticated strategy which places the burden of responsibility on Hitler, not denying his crimes but relegitimizes German national identity and the role of Germany as a continental Middle European power.
