Based on interviews and the voluminous materials in the archives of
the SED, the Stasi and central and regional authorities, this
volume focuses on several contrasting minorities (Jehovah's
Witnesses, Jews, 'guest' workers from Vietnam and Mozambique,
football fans, punks, and skinheads) and their interaction with
state and party bodies during Erich Honecker's rule over the
communist system. It explores how they were able to resist
persecution and surveillance by instruments of the state, thus
illustrating the limits on the power of the East German
dictatorship and shedding light on the notion of authority as
social practice.
