  • Descrição: [...]the GDR countryside "evolved into a world created (or, from some points of view, destroyed) by both authorities and consumers" (p. 6). The book begins by situating East German attitudes towards the environment in a longer historical trajectory. Since the nineteenth century, growing numbers of Germans harbored dark fears about hunger and lack of resources, anxieties that led them to embrace statist solutions to resolve these problems of scarcity under both the Weimar democracy and Nazi dictatorship.
