Germany: Ostalgia for the GDR, by Dominique Vidal, Peter Linden et Benjamin Wuttke

Germany is now in economic distress; the Socialist-Green coalition in power is selling off public assets and dismantling the social welfare system.
Germany: Ostalgia for the GDR, by Dominique Vidal, Peter Linden et Benjamin Wuttke
Gerhard thinks Ostalgia reflects "the rejection ofb> the new society by a steadily increasing number ofb> East Germans, who are so desperate they forget the shortcomings ofb> the GDR." Maxim justifies "a legitimate desire to defend a lifestyle that has disappeared" but also refers to "memories ofb> a GDR that never existed".

JCWS 5:2 "The Prelude to Nationwide Surveillance in East Germany: Stasi Operations and Threat Perceptions, 1945-1953" by Gary Bruce

Its work was brought to a standstill by West Germany's Federal Ministry for the Protection ofb> the Constitution in the "Vulkan affair" ofb> 1953.
By the spring ofb> 1953 prisons in East Germany were overflowing with those sentenced under the "Law for the Protection ofb> the People's Property and Other Community Property." Workers and farmers were engaged in overt resistance to the "building ofb> socialism," and basic goods such as butter and vegetables were difficult to obtain.
Its main task was to compile a registry ofb> injustices in eastern Germany for an eventual trial that would be a "new and better Nüremberg." The VOS was formed shortly afterward, in February 1950, by former prisoners in East Germany to promote the release ofb> political prisoners there.
