'Getting History Right' examines this question in a comparative context by looking at an authoritarian East Germany and a pluralistic, democratic West Germany. It examines how societal level discussions of the past shaped individual perceptions and interpretations of the past; and how individual perceptions and struggles over the meaning of the past shaped societal level discussions. These struggles over meaning and 'getting history right' are not only shaped by political power, but are also a source of symbolic power.Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945)Public opinionWorld War, 1939-1945Public opinionCollective memoryGermanyWar and societyGermanyCollective memoryGermany (East)Collective memoryGermany (West)Popular cultureGermany (East)Politics and cultureGermany (East)Politics and cultureGermany (West)Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945)Public opinion.World War, 1939-1945Public opinion.Collective memoryWar and societyCollective memoryCollective memoryPopular culturePolitics and culturePolitics and culture940.53/18Wolfgram Mark1970-1644919MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910816379703321Getting history right3991050UNINA
