The book delves into the surprising stability and rapid collapse of the German Democratic Republic, established after the Third Reich's defeat. It examines the dynamics of power and public sentiment within this dictatorship, revealing how the Stasi and state organizations permeated East German society. Fulbrook highlights the rise of oppositional movements in the 1980s, particularly within the Protestant Church, which navigated its relationship with the communist regime. Through extensive archival research, this study offers significant insights into East Germany's historical context and its lasting impact on modern Germany.
