Stephen G. Gross is jointly appointed in the Department of History and the Center for European and Mediterranean Studies at NYU. His research and teaching focuses on the history of 20th century Germany, European and international political economy, and energy and climate policy. His second book—Energy and Power: Germany in the Age of Oil, Atoms, and Climate Change (Oxford University Press)—traces the evolving politics and economics surrounding energy crises and energy transition in the Federal Republic of Germany after 1945. He has also co-edited a volume on the history of Energy Transitions in North America and Europe with Andrew Needham. His first book, Export Empire (Cambridge University Press) uses the concepts of soft power and informal empire to cast a new light on the international political economy that undergirded Hitler’s imperial ambitions in the 1930s. His research has been supported by grants from the Andrew Carnegie Foundation, the Andrew Mellon Foundation, and the Institute for New Economic Thinking.
