Broschiertes Buch

Inventing a Socialist Nation

Heimat and the Politics of Everyday Life in the Gdr, 1945 90

Beschreibung

This book shows how 'national' identity was invented in the German Democratic Republic and how citizens engaged with it, exposing the reasons why individuals found it hard to identify with the GDR and explaining how an apparently stable society fell apart with such ease when the revolution came.
