The Crisis of the German Left by Peter Thompson

The Crisis of the German Left by Peter Thompson

Using Nietzsche's categories of monumentalism, antiquarian and critical history, the author examines the historical and theoretical contexts of the collapse of the GDR in 1989 and looks at the positive and negative legacies of the GDR for the PDS (the successor party to the East German Communists).

“…presents a unique perspective on the PDS…Thompson’s take on the PDS and the history of the German left gives historians and political scientists a fresh perspedtive on these topics”  · German Studies Review

Peter Thompson is a lecturer in German at the University of Sheffield, UK. His research since 1990 has concentrated mainly on the history of the German workers' movement, the transformation of the GDR and the PDS but he has also written on ecology, the history of ideas and Bertolt Brecht.
