Conflict and Compromise in East Germany, 1971–1989 [electronic resource] : A Precarious Stability /
Madarász, Jeannette Z.author.
This extensively researched empirical analysis of the GDR in the years 1971-1989 challenges current historical interpretations of GDR history. It focuses on four social groups - youth, women, writers and Christians - to highlight the stability of this socialist society until 1987. The strength of the regime is shown to have been based on a continuously negotiated process of give-and-take involving major parts of the population.
