Die Friedliche Revolution: Aufbruch Zur Demokratie in Sachsen 1989/90Hardcover, 26 August 2009

With this work comes the first detailed presentation of the historical dispossession of power of the German Social Unity Party and democratization up until the 1990 March elections. The text is supplemented by various graphs that quantitatively capture and evaluate the voice of the people. Using Saxony, the pacemaker of the revolution, as an example, the development in counties, districts, municipalities, and enterprises is described in comparison to international and national policies that were the main driving forces behind development. It leaves no doubt that the populous was the main driver behind the ensuing events. It thus becomes evident why development didn't stop with a renewal of the GDR, but led to a German unification.
