ABSTRACT

This paper is work how Germany and Poland have solved the question of cooperation for mutual understanding and co-existence between two countries as part of today's European integration, in spite of almost one thousand years lasting historical inconvenient experience, national antagonism and crimes of Nazi Germany in the Second World War. The difference of the territorial problems and historical awareness between German and Poland was able to overcome through the narrative of history textbooks and history education that was based on political efforts and academic discussions for mutual understanding. These acts have been provided a momentum for a new historical understanding, namely the new vision of history by communication and co-interpretation in spite of conflict and dispute, in both countries. Today, the two countries do not pose any more problems around the border. Rather, in regions of Germania-Slavica that germanic and slavic culture is fused,their own local culture are developing by both cultures. In addition, the integration of germanic and slavic culture is going to become a part of European culture. The area is considered as a prime example that was resolved territorial and historical disputes relating to this era of nationalism through a peaceful and scholarly dialogue.
