| Description: |
A collection of documents about the short-lived uprising demonstrate that it was more than a ploy orchestrated by West Germany and the radio station RIAS, but was a response to the issue of work norms for increased time and output and a result of a new Communist regime uncertain of its place. |
| Synopsis: |
The volume is the first documented account of this early Cold War crisis from both sides of the Iron Curtain. Based on the recent unprecedented access to the once-closed archives of several member states of the Warsaw Pact, this collection of primary-source documents presents one of the most notorious events of post-war European history. |
