Description

This comprehensive account of the East German Revolution of 1989 reveals previously unexplored events and phases of this transformative period in European history. Drawing on extensive primary sources including twenty-five interviews with oppositionists, movement participants and state officials, plus archive materials from the Stasi, police, SED and civic groups, the book uncovers significant moments often overlooked in conventional histories. Notable events examined include the 'battle of Dresden station,' the 'December uprising' and the strike wave of January 1990. The author's residence in East Germany during the late 1980s provides unique perspective and authority to this historical analysis, offering readers fresh insights into how ordinary people and institutions shaped one of the twentieth century's most pivotal political transformations.
