As a way of marking the 60th anniversary of the founding of the Federal Republic of Germany, CCGES has invited Dr. Wilhelm Bleek (Professor Emeritus, Political Science, Ruhr-Universitaet Bochum) to consider the FRG’s first capital, Bonn. Having grown up in the “Rhine metropolis”, Prof. Bleek has promised to provide some personal memories from the early years of the Bonner Republik as well as perspectives on the processes and personalities which led to the fledgling state orienting itself to the West.
