  • I think German culture is still anti-individualist. Germans confuse "indvidualism" with "opportunism," as in 1933-45. There are laws like Beleidigung and also a strong welfare state, designed to support the indvidual. The PISA results indicate teachers lecturing students, rather than allowing them to learn by practice. And like this discussion, Germans are very concerned what country you come from, that often comes first. And of course the anti-Americanism since Iraq. But now Obama is prez, "America" is cool again.
