State and Minorities in Communist East Germany

"This welcome study illustrates how the various minorities managed to survive under the massive attempts of the East German regime to control them. Based on extensive archival research and interviews. Highly recommended." * Choice "There is much to admire in Dennis' and LaPorte's study. Fascinating comparative perspectives emerge from its surveys of groups which, for reason or another, did not fit into the SED's worldview - an invaluable introduction [that] is wide-ranging, diligently researched, and cogently argued - highly recommended." * German Studies Review
