The Role of the Masses in the Collapse of the GDR (Hardcover)

Examines the role of the masses in the collapse of the East German regime and state in 1989 in the northern district of Schwerin. The study shows the extent to which citizens of the GDR dictatorship were instrumental in their state's demise. The "bottom up" approach employed, in contrast to the study of power wielding elites and "opposition", explores the shift in mood and behaviour of citizens which brought about the internal collapse of the state.
