The Crisis of the German Left by Peter Thompson
Using Nietzsche's categories of monumentalist, antiquarian, and critical history, this book examines the historical and theoretical contexts of the collapse of the GDR in 1989. It also looks at the positive and negative legacies of the GDR for the PDS (the successor party to the East German Communists).-
