The works of Jurek Becker are paradigmatic for the study of
socialist control over literary life in the GDR. The
censorship-based administration of this area of social reality was
effectively thrown out of joint by the ersatz publicity in the
Federal Republic. Discourse and textual analysis of a wealth of
unpublished archive material indicates that cooperation, conflict
settlement, and power struggles between authors, publishers, the
political leadership, and the State Security Service followed the
same pattern. All the participants availed themselves of the core
discourses on opposition and publicity to define and assert their
respective stances.
