Popular Protest in East Germany
Routledge (Verlag)
978-0-7146-5408-9 (ISBN)
An incisive new study of dissent and protest in the German Democratic Republic, focusing on the upheaval of 1989-1990.
The author, an active participant both in the 'Citizens' Movement' and in the street protests of that year, draws upon a vast array of sources including interviews, documents from the archives of the old regime and the Citizens' Movement and his own diary entries, to explore the causes and processes of the East German revolution. The book is at once a lucid and vibrant narrative history and a pioneering contribution to research in this field.
Gareth Dale is a Lecturer in Politics at the University of Wales, Swansea. He has recently published a monograph entitled Between State Capitalism and Globalisation (2004). His research interests include German politics, the politics of migration and international political economy.
