متن يادداشت

This thesis is an investigation into the integration of east German women into the FederalRepublic following German unification. It draws on oral history interviews to examine theexistence of a distinctive identity amongst east German women and concludes that theiropinions and values reflect the Marxist Feminist principles upheld in the GDR, withparticular reference to the belief in the importance of paid employment for the emancipationof women. The thesis also investigates the nature of dissatisfaction with the Federal Republicamongst east German women and concludes that a lack of fulfilment of expectations arisingfrom socialisation in the GDR has led to a level of dissatisfaction amongst east Germanwomen which could act as a stimulus for political mobilisation. Finally, the thesisinvestigates the links between dissatisfaction and political activity amongst east Germanwomen and concludes that they display both political will and ability despitedisempowerment in the GDR but also that there are signs of characteristics specific to eastGerman women relating to disillusion and withdrawal. It also notes, however, that eastGerman women have recorded signficant achievements in retaining more typically 'eastGerman biographies' and that their individual resistance to change may prove to be theirmost powerful political weapon.
