Literary fiction in Germany has long been a medium for contemplation of the 'nation' and questions of national identity. From the mid-1990s, in the wake of heated debates on the future direction of culture, politics and society in a more 'normal', united country, German literature has become increasingly diverse and seemingly disparate - at the one extreme, it represents the attempt to 'reinvent' German traditions, at the other, the unmistakable influence of Anglo-American forms and pop literature. A shared concern of almost all of recent German fiction, however, is the contemporary debate on globalisation, its nature, impact and consequences for 'local culture'. In its engagement with globalisation the literature of the Berlin Republic continues the long-established practice of reflection on what it is to be 'German'.This book investigates literary responses to the phenomenon of globalisation. The subject is approached from a wide range of thematic and theoretical perspectives in twelve chapters which, taken together, also provide an overview of German fiction from the mid-1990s to the present. The book serves both as an introduction to contemporary German literature for university students of German and as a resource for scholars interested in culture and society in the Berlin Republic.

›Globalisierung‹ gilt den Wissenschaften immer noch als ein ›vages‹ Konzept. Dennoch kann die Frage nach der Beziehung von Literatur und Globalisierung zu seiner schärferen Konturierung beitragen, denn gerade die auf Verzögerung und Verlangsamung in Darstellung und Rezeption angelegten Verfahren der Literatur sind es, die Verschiebungen der Grundlagen unseres kulturellen Wissens sensibel registrieren. Dies nehmen die Beiträge des vorliegenden Bandes in den Blick, indem sie Globalisierungswirkungen und -folgen für die zeitlich wie räumlich beschränkte Diskursformation der (vorwiegend deutschsprachigen) Gegenwartsliteratur analysieren, Globalisierungsnarrative aufzeigen und Phänomenen von Globalisierung in der Literatur ebenso nachgehen wie der Frage, in welchem Maße die Literatur im Gesamtzusammenhang der Medien selbst zum Objekt der Globalisierung geworden ist. Der Band kann überzeugend zeigen, dass Homogenisierungsszenarien für die Gegenwartsliteratur nicht zu befürchten sind. Gerade weil sie Globalisierungsprozesse in ihrer Komplexität reflektiert, bleibt ihr Spektrum vielschichtig und durchaus widersprüchlich.
