Communism's collapse, democracy's demise?

Más información sobre el libro

This text explores East German political culture and its role in the revolution of 1989 and in reunification. Specifically the book shows how a set of common values stabilized the communist regime until the 1980s, how the undermining of these values' motivated revolutionary mobilization, and how the partial survival of this specific culture and its conflict with West German culture have contributed to the post-unification political crisis.
