Alex, Rudy and Christian sit down to discuss the history of the German
Democratic Republic from its foundation atop the ruins of WW2 to the
prelude of reunification. They discuss the challenges of building
socialism in the fourth of ruined country, the challenges of brain
drain, the economy before and after the Wall was built, the
intelligentsia/worker divide, the varying responsiveness of the ruling
party to criticism and how the GDR was able to provide “a normal life”
to most of its population for decades.
