Summary

"With a simple yet incisive theoretical perspective, Steven Pfaff casts a bright light on the crisis of East German Communism, the 'exiting crisis' and popular rebellion of 1989, the marginalization of leftist activists, and the turn to nationalism and German reunification. This is the best theoretical analysis of the East German revolution that I have read. Pfaff's model of exit-voice dynamics is also a major contribution to the literature on collective action and revolutions."--Jeff Goodwin, author of "No Other Way Out: States and Revolutionary Movements, 1945-1991"
