When the Iron Curtain fell, East Germany ceased to be. For over forty years, from the ruin of the Second World War to the cusp of a new millennium, the German Democratic Republic presented a radically different Germany than what had come before and what exists today. Socialist solidarity, secret police, central planning, barbed wire: this was a Germany forged on the fault lines of ideology and geopolitics.In Beyond the Wall, acclaimed historian Katja Hoyer sets aside the usual Cold War caricatures of the GDR to offer a kaleidoscopic new vision of this vanished country, revealing the rich political, social, and cultural landscape that existed amid oppression and hardship. Drawing on a vast array of never-before-seen interviews and documents, this is the definitive history of the other Germany, beyond the Wall.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51974016270624,"sku":"NEW1541602579","price":32.22,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/beyond-the-wall-a-history-of-east-germany-1541602579","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
