The Politics of Culture in Soviet-Occupied Germany, 1945-1949 (e-book) (used book) | bookbook.eu
Reviews
Description
This book examines the political, ideological, and cultural policies pursued by the German Communist of Socialist Unity party, acting upon the instructions of Stalin and his military administration, in Soviet-occupied Germany from 1945 through 1949. During these years, the Communists, in close collaboration with leading officers or diplomats of the Soviet occupation regime, developed a constricting system of organization that guaranteed their control over political as well as cultural processes and allowed both to be used in furthering the specific interests of Soviet foreign policy. The party's public rhetoric - its shifting ideological presuppositions and cultural corollaries - is an especially important aspect of the author's inquiry into German Communist and Soviet objectives; and he bases his analysis of these and other matters upon extensive documentation enriched by a wealth of unpublished material only recently available to scholars since the opening of East German archives.
