Walls and Mirrors cover

In this study the author examines the socialist society of the German Democratic Republic. Throughout the book, questions are raised about the nature of representation, the role of subjectivity in ideological formations, and especially the role of such subjectivity when westerners attempt to 'tell the objective truth' about socialist societies.
