- Abstract
"End Game: The 1989 Revolution in East Germany" is a translated and accessible study by Ilko-Sascha Kowalczuk that explores the collapse of the German Democratic Republic (GDR) in 1989. Kowalczuk, a historian and contemporary witness, provides a comprehensive analysis of the causes and events leading to the GDR's downfall. The book examines the social, political, and cultural crisis that swept through the GDR, the rise of opposition groups, and the fall of the dictatorship. Kowalczuk argues that the revolution met the criteria of a revolution, despite the challenges faced during the reunification process. The book concludes with a reflection on the revolution and its impact on contemporary Germany.
