During the division of Germany, law became the object of
ideological conflicts and the means by which the two national
governments conducted their battle over political legitimacy. Legal
Entanglements explores how these dynamics produced competing
concepts of statehood and sovereignty, all centered on citizens and
their rights. Drawing on wide-ranging archival sources, including
recently declassified documents, Sebastian Gehrig traces how
politicians, diplomats, judges, lawyers, activists and
intellectuals navigated the struggle between legal ideologies under
the pressures of the Cold War and decolonization. As he shows, in
their response to global debates over international law and human
rights, their work kept the legal cultures of both German states
entangled until 1989.
