It examines their sociopolitical and cultural connections through a variety of media. Since 1945, cultural flow between Germany and East Asia has increasingly become bidirectional, spurred by East Asian economies' unprecedented growth. In exploring their dynamic and evolving relations, this volume emphasizes how they have negotiated their differences and have frequently cooperated toward common goals in meeting the challenges of the contemporary world. Given their long-standing historical differences, their post-1945 relations reveal a surprisingly high degree of affinity in many areas. To show how they have deeply shaped each other's views, this volume presents 12 chapters by scholars from the fields of history, sinology, sociology, literature, music, and film. Topics include cultural topics, s\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e1 Historical Survey, Historiography, and Organization 1 \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJOANNE MIYANG CHO\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePART I\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePolitical and Social Connections since 1945 23\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e2 A Bridge from Beijing to Berlin: Diplomatic and Trade Cooperation in Sino–East German Relations, 1949–1955 25\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCHRISTINA T ILL\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e3 The Contribution of West German Christian Churches tothe Democratization of Korea in the 1970s and 1980s 50\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSOO-HYUN MUN\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e4 Commemorative Culture in Korea and Germany: State Commemoration of Fallen Soldiers and Civilian Victims 68\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHO-KEUN CHOI\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePART II\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEast Asian Transnational Communities since 1945 89\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e5 Two Generations of Korean–Germans: From Silent Integration to Glass Ceiling 91\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSUIN ROBERTS\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e6 The Heterogeneous Japanese Community in Dusseldorf and the Question of Social Integration: More Segregate than Integrated? 112\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eVANESSA TKOTZYK\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePART III\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLiterary Connections since 1945 133\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e7 Reframing Footage from Deshima: Swiss Writer Adolf Muschg’s Exploration of Japan and Japanese Sexuality 135\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMIN ZHOU\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e8 Parable of the Delusionist?
