Recenzje

'For some years, East German historiography has been escaping the tired and limiting perspectives soldered into place by the misguided triumphalism of the 1990s. Focusing on the GDR's last two decades, on the seemingly unpromising ground of environmentalism, Julia Ault further deepens our grasp of this misperceived state-socialist project and its boundaries.' Geoffrey Eley, University of Michigan
