Synopsis

The GDR collapsed more than thirty years ago, but the state and its legacies continues to have resonance. This interdisciplinary collection reveals patterns of subversion, border crossing and effective agency in GDR film, theatre, music, literature and more. More than a volume about the past, this book holds implications for the future.
