  • The Fall of the GDR Germany's Road to Unity
    Published on Reviews in History (https://reviews.history.ac.uk) The Fall of the GDR Germany’s Road to Unity Review Number: 280 Publish date: Sunday, 30 June, 2002 Author: David Childs ISBN: 9780582315686 Date of Publication: 2001 Price: £14.99 Pages: 205pp. Publisher: Longman Publisher url: http://www.pearsonhighered.com Place of Publication: N/A Reviewer: Jan Palmowski In The Fall of the GDR, David Childs discusses the collapse of the GDR up to unification. He begins by discussing the leadership structure of the GDR, and notes in particular the relative longevity and the geriatric age structure of the Politbureau in the 1980s. This is complemented by a discussion of the administrative structure of the state, its mass organizations, and the potential for opposition in the mid-1980s. If the first chapter has set the scene for the impending collapse of the GDR, the second chapter presents an overview over the history of the GDR. The author emphasizes in particular the structural deficits that burdened the state. These deficits were compounded by the economic policies of the communist regime. As a result, the GDR was forced, in 1983 and 1984, to accept massive loans to keep the whole state afloat. This section then lists other elements in the state’s ‘Flawed Development’: its inadequate housing stock, and the lack of a separate GDR identity and the failure to develop one in the face of the glamorous and evidently more consumerist Federal Republic. These factors can be taken as reasons why, according to studies conducted by the Central Institute for Research on Youth, by May 1988 only 28 per cent of young people asked identified themselves as proud citizens of the GDR.

Here, an agreement on monetary, economic, and social union came into force immediately establishing West Germany's "social market economy" as the norm for all Germany. Officially, the constituent Under, or states, of the German Democratic Republic shed the last vestiges of their Soviet-created structure behind the iron curtain and acceded to the Federal Republic of Germany on October 3, 1990.1 With this, the two Germanies quickly became one in name. An enthusiastic East became absorbed into a more wealthy, more developed, democratic nation that boasted a free market economy. Yet, today, many uncertainties still exist over this expedient move towards unification. When economic equality is discussed, Germans speak in terms of years, but when asked how long it will take to achieve "inner unity," they often speak in terms of generations2. Furthermore, politics, economics, and foreign relations continue to be topics of uncertainty for a united Germany.

  • The Stasi the East German Intelligence and Security Service
    palgrave.com David Childs, Richard Popplewell The Stasi The East German Intelligence and Security Service The Stasi were among the most successful security and intelligence services in the Cold War. Behind the Berlin Wall, colleagues, friends, husbands and wives, informed on each other. Stasi chief, General Mielke, prided himself on this situation. Under Marcus Wolf, Stasi agents were spectacularly successful in gaining entry into the West German Establishment and NATO. Some remain undiscovered. Now, for the first time in English, two British experts reveal how the Stasi operated. Based on a wealth of sources, including interviews with former Stasi officers and their victims, the book tells a fascinating yet frightening story of unbridled power, misguided idealism, treachery, widespread opportunism and lonely courage. 1999, XIII, 253 p.

    “German Forest and Farm Landscapes and the Onset of the Cold War, 1945–1949: Evidence from the Soviet Zone Countryside” Arvid Nelson, Yale School of Forestry and Environmental Studies Agrarian Studies Colloquium Series, 2 February 2007 The origins of the cold war remain contentious despite John Lewis Gaddis’ reve- lations of Soviet strategy in the immediate postwar period drawn from once secret Soviet archives in his recent book, We now know: rethinking cold war history.1 There are other sources for Soviet intentions in 1945-1949: in the eastern European farm and forest land- scapes’ structure, change and populations. Reading ecosystem qualities reveals secrets hidden in closed archives such as in the former Soviet Union. Cold war landscapes offer particularly valuable information. For Stalin’s “war on the countryside,” waged through land reform and reparations, took precedence over his other goals.2 Destruction of the Soviets’ traditional foes in the countryside, the “backward peasant” and the rural aristoc- racy, and reduction of rural community and ecological structures lay at the core of the Soviets’ strategy to exert its power and preempt U.S. and British influence throughout Europe. We can read the signs of Stalin’s intent and design in unambiguous ecological data and in the narratives of rural communities and stories of farmers and foresters. Land reform, Stalin’s first political initiative in the Soviet zone, prepared Ger- many for Soviet rule as a part of the “parliamentary road to democracy.” This initially popular initiative brought great pressure to bear on the Britain and America to enact simi- 1 John Lewis Gaddis, We now know: rethinking cold war history (New York: Oxford University Press, 1997).
