German Lives in a Violent Century. Mary Fulbrook has, in recent decades, been a beacon of scholarly achievement in modern German history, particularly but not exclusively in post-1945 East German history. Her numerous monographs and many articles have become a staple resource for those working in this field. Lately she has applied herself to the study of mass perceptions and attitudes as those relate to the larger political and institutional history of twentieth-century Germany. Citation: Henry Krisch.

Imagine living through not just one but two dictatorships, right wing followed by left wing, and then being there to tell the tale after both regimes . These questions are answered in Mary Fulbrook's latest book Dissonant Lives

Imagine living through not just one but two dictatorships, right wing followed by left wing, and then being there to tell the tale after both regimes had collapsed. Citizens of East Germany between 1949 and 1989 were in such a position in 1990 when East and West Germany were formally reunited. These questions are answered in Mary Fulbrook's latest book Dissonant Lives. Both the Nazi dictatorship between 1933 and 1945 and the communist dictatorship in the German Democratic Republic (GDR) between 1949 and 1989 had very particular ideas about how their inhabitants should think and behave.
