Dictatorship as Experience by Konrad H. Jarausch & Eve Duffy

Towards a Socio-cultural History of the GDR

Historians at the Zentrum fnr Zeithistorische Forschung transcend condemnation and apology for the East German government in order to explore the contradiction of using dictatorial means to achieve emancipatory aims, consider both its repressive and welfare features, and discuss the mix of dynamism A decade after the collapse of communism, this volume presents a historical reflection on the perplexing nature of the East German dictatorship. In contrast to most political rhetoric, it seeks to establish a middle ground between totalitarianism theory, stressing the repressive features of the SED-regime, and apologetics of the socialist experiment, emphasizing the normalcy of daily lives.
