Using Nietzsche's categories of monumentalist, 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). He contends that the Stalinization of the GDR itself was the product not just of the Cold War but of a longer inter-systemic struggle between the competing primacies of politics and economics and that the end of the GDR has to be seen as a consequence of the global collapse of the social...

DIANA'S NIGHTMARE: The Family
By Chris Hutchins and Peter Thompson "Now available in paperback"
The Second World War should have been dead and buried, but trouble always comes from those allowed to escape. The Waffen SS is alive and kicking, having remained underground for decades, hidden by sympathisers in South America.

A half-mad Wyoming senator is one of the most evil men you could ever wish to meet, and his cult of Abbadon is hell bent on mass suicide, but they want to take everyone else in the world with them. The Yellowstone Park volcano has lain dormant for seventy thousand years, but this senator has a small nanobug that will make it erupt in a maelstrom of fire and ash; few will survive in a world that is covered in darkness and ice for years to come. With a price on his head, and suffering from memory loss, Tom Ranswick heads for the park.

He will be one of three beings from different worlds to form an assault group,...

The Chechen terrorist/soldier is, without doubt, committed to his cause. Trains carrying Russian nuclear weapons have often been attacked with a view to getting hold of them, but so far the terrorists have been denied these weapons. Or do they already have them?

The fight against a parasitic invader on Earth would take Marcus Cobb into space only to find that other worlds were also fighting a war of attrition against this invader of worlds. Worlds that were further advanced than his own. Marcus Cobb was found to have a mind that could fight the Lowi menace, his mind being so strong that he wouldn't succumb to their mind control.
