Stereotypes continue to dominate contemporary Anglo-German relations. This volume brings together views from psychology, history, cultural theory, literature, pedagogy, but also business and management studies to elucidate the origins, forms, and possible strategies of dealing with clich?s of 'the British' and 'the Germans'. By assessing their impact on the personal sphere and that of communication, the media, business, and politics, they demonstrate how an awareness of stereotypes can be part of a realistic assertion of identity in a changing world.Notes on the Contributors Introduction: Contemporary Anglo-German Relations; R.Emig PART I: BASICS Stereotypes in International Relations; K.Greenland Stereotypes and Projective Mechanisms: Forging Links between Psyche and Culture; A.Grossman PART II: POPULAR EXPRESSIONS Stereotypes, Language and the Media: Plus ?a change ?; J.A.Morris We Will Fight Them on the Beaches; H.Husemann J?rgen Klinsmann, EURO 96 and Their Impact on British Perceptions of Germany and the Germans; D.Head PART III: TEACHING AND (UN-)LEARNING STEREOTYPES With Literary Texts against Stereotypes: Stereotypes in Language Teaching; M.L?schmann Developing a Culture Assimilator: Culture Training for German Exchange Students; S.Schmid PART IV: STEREOTYPES IN BUSINESS AND POLITICS A View from a Bridge: Stereotypes of the German in Business and Higher Education; S.Price 'All Germans Work Hard': Myth or Reality?
