Obwohl uber die DDR schon viel geforscht worden ist, haben HistorikerInnen bislang kaum uber Stadte gearbeitet. Besonders auf Festen und Feiern wurde Herrschaft reprasentiert und Stadtoffentlichkeit aktiviert. Staat und Partei brauchten die Stadte als sichtbares Zeichen der von ihnen proklamierten Leistungsfahigkeit des sozialistischen Systems. Sondermittel sollten die stadtische Infrastruktur und die Versorgungslage verbessern. Nach auaen hin dienten die groaen Ereignisse dazu, Einigkeit zwischen Staat und Stadt zu inszenieren und vielfaltige Identifikationsangebote zu schaffen. In Reden, Schriften, Filmen, Photos, Zeitungsberichten und Souvenirs wurden die Feiern festgehalten und positive Erinnerungen zu erzeugen versucht. Dieser Band zeigt nun durch Einblicke in die Akten auch die zahlreichen Spannungen zwischen Staat und Stadt auf, besonders bei Fragen der Geschichtskultur, der Veranstaltungstypen, der Politisierung sowie der Sicherheit und Organisation. "aa pioneering worko German History "Fur die Stadtgeschichtsschreibung setzt dieser Sammelband Maastabe. Die beispielhaft vorgefuhrte Integration von Sozial-, Politik- und Kulturgeschichte ist aber auch ein weiterfuhrender Beitrag zur DDR-Forschung insgesamt, nicht zuletzt weil sie die Aufmerksamkeit fur die Ambivalenzen im Verhaltnis von Herrschaft und Gesellschaft in der Diktatur scharft." sehepunkte "Der Band ist ein gelungenes Werk, das fur die untersuchten Bereiche den derzeitigen Forschungsstand zur DDR-Stadtgeschichte dokumentiert. [a] das Buch stellt einen wichtigen Beitrag zur DDR-Forschung dar, vor allem, weil es zahlreiche Anknupfungspunkte fur die Diskussion uber das Verhaltnis von Politik und Gesellschaft im SED-Staat bietet." H-Soz-u-Kult "Well-written by all hands, these trenchant political analyses and rich microhistories not only give one a first-hand insight into intrastate GDR politics but also truly make one get a sense of aewie es eigentlich gewesen ist'. One should therefore look forward to their forthcoming comparative volume with special anticipation." H-Net-Reviews "Die Fallstudien sind in sich geschlossene Beitrage und konnen als Einzelgeschichten gelesen werden, zumal auch sie jeweils am Ende kurze Resumees der Forschungsergebnisse aufweisen. Die Einbettung der Beitrage durch Einleitung, Einfuhrung und Zusammenfassung ist jedoch ein gelungenes Beispiel, wie mikrohistorische und ereignisorientierte Forschung zusammengefuhrt, gebundelt prasentiert und vor allem kommentiert werden kann. Der Band leistet damit einen wichtigen und vor allem differenzierten Einblick in die Stadtgeschichte der DDR. Die Lekture im Zusammenhang ist daher nur zu empfehlen."

Verändert sich der Charakter einer Stadt im Wandel der Systeme? Wer konstruiert welche "Bilder", mit welchem Ziel? Was bedeutet städtische Geschichte für die Identität der Stadt und ihrer Bewohner? Detlev Brunner nimmt diese zentralen Fragen für seinen Modellfall Stralsund in den Blick. Dabei wendet er kulturgeschichtliche, politik- und sozialgeschichtliche Methoden an. Die historischen Zäsuren (1918, 1933, 1945) wirkten auf die städtische Gesellschaft und die politischen Institutionen wie Magistrat, Stadtparlament ein, dennoch verkörpern die Stadt und ihre Geschichte Kontinuität über diese Einschnitte hinweg. Trotz systembedingter Wandlungen blieben Kerne städtischer Identität und selbst in den Diktaturen lokale Freiräume erhalten. Mit diesem Ergebnis verweist die Studie auf die herausgehobene Bedeutung von Städten im gesellschaftlichen und staatlichen Gesamtgefüge.

The study of emotions has attracted anew the interest of scholars in various disciplines, igniting a lively public debate on the constructive and destructive power of emotions in society as well as within each of us. Most of the contributors to this volume do not hail from the United States but look at the nation from abroad. They explore the role of emotions in history and ask how that exploration changes what we know about national and international history, and in turn how that affects the methodological study of history. In particular they focus on emotions in American history between the 18th century and the present: in war, in social and political discourse, as well as in art and the media. In addition to case studies, the volume includes a review of their fields by senior scholars, who offer new insights regarding future research projects.

What do we mean when we say that cities have altered humanity’s interaction with nature? The more people are living in cities, the more nature is said to be "urbanizing": turned into a resource, mobilized over long distances, controlled, transformed and then striking back with a vengeance as "natural disaster". Confronting insights derived from Environmental History, Science and Technology Studies or Political Ecology, Urbanizing Nature aims to counter teleological perspectives on the birth of modern "urban nature" as a uniform and linear process, showing how new technological schemes, new actors and new definitions of nature emerged in cities from the sixteenth to the twentieth century.

The Hungarian city of Sztálinváros, or "Stalin-City," was intended to be the paradigmatic urban community of the new communist society in the 1950s. In Stalinism Reloaded, Sándor Horváth explores how Stalin-City and the socialist regime were built and stabilized not only by the state but also by the people who came there with hope for a better future. By focusing on the everyday experiences of citizens, Horváth considers the contradictions in the Stalinist policies and the strategies these bricklayers, bureaucrats, shop girls, and even children put in place in order to cope with and shape the expectations of the state. Stalinism Reloaded reveals how the state influenced marriage patterns, family structure, and gender relations. While the devastating effects of this regime are considered, a convincing case is made that ordinary citizens had significant agency in shaping the political policies that governed them.

World War II, known as the Great Patriotic War to Russians, ravaged the Soviet Union and traumatized those who survived. After the war, memory of this anguish was often publicly repressed under Stalin. But that all changed by the 1960s. Under Brezhnev, the idea of the Great Patriotic War was transformed into one of victory and celebration. In Russia's Hero Cities, Ivo Mijnssen reveals how contradictory national recollections were revised into an idealized past that both served official needs and offered a narrative of heroism. This triumphant narrative was most evident in the creation of 13 Hero Cities, now located across Russia, Belarus, and Ukraine. These cities, which were host to some of the fiercest and most famous battles, were named champions. Brezhnev's government officially recognized these cities with awards, financial contributions, and ritualized festivities. Their citizens also encountered the altered history at every corner—on manicured battlefields, in war memorials, and through stories at the kitchen table. Using a rich tapestry of archival material, oral history interviews, and newspaper articles, Mijnssen provides a thorough exploration of two cities in particular, Tula and Novorossiysk. By exploring the significance of Hero Cities in Soviet identity and the enduring but conflicted importance they hold for Russians today, Russia's Hero Cities exposes how the Great Patriotic War no longer has the power to mask the deep rifts still present in Russian society.

Amnesiopolis explores the construction of Marzahn, the largest prefabricated housing project in East Germany, built on the outskirts of East Berlin in the 1970s and 1980s, and touted by the regime as the future of socialism. It focuses particularly on the experience of East Germans who moved, often from crumbling slums left over as a legacy of the nineteenth century, into this radically new place - one defined by pure functionality and rationality - a material manifestation of the utopian promise of socialism. Eli Rubin employs methodologies from critical geography, urban history, architectural history, environmental history, and everyday life history to ask whether their experience was a radical break with their personal pasts and the German past. Amnesiopolis asks: can a dramatic change in spatial and material surroundings sever the links of memory that tie people to their old life narratives, and if so, does that help build a new socialist mentality in the minds of historical subjects? The answer is yes and no-as much as the East German state tried to create a completely new socialist settlement, divorced of any links to the pre-socialist past, the massive construction project uncovered the truth buried-literally-in the ground, which was that the urge to colonize the outskirts of Berlin was not new at all. Furthermore, the construction of a new city out of nothing, using repeating, identical buildings, created a panopticon-like effect, giving the Stasi the possibility of more complete surveillance than they previously had.

This collection of essays, written by leading scholars in the fields of East German art, film, literature, music, and museum studies, seeks to renegotiate the artistic legacy of the German Democratic Republic. Combining a range of theoretical and practical perspectives, the volume challenges the narrow frameworks of totalitarianism and Ostalgie that have dominated discussions of art produced in the GDR. It explores the diversity of art produced in the state and contests the long-held perception that socialist realism and artistic innovation were mutually exclusive. Crucially, the collection puts art itself to the fore; GDR art is considered not simply as a political by-product, as is so often the case, but as an entity of innovation and aesthetic value in its own right.
