Abstract
Long time concentrated a historical and politics-scientific research led by the aftereffects of the Totalitarismuskonzepts on the level of the state and party leadership and 'through-prevailed' a rigid picture socialist societies of central and Eastern Europe drawn. A goal of the volume, which came out from the annual convention 2002 of the Collegium Carolinum, is far the question about it, like itself social actions to extract processes and movements in these countries of postulated ubiquitous political power searched and was able. By the example of different investigation fields one follows to this question: the industriellen environment, the planned 'sample cities' of socialism as well as the repression and pursuit of different social large's groups. All contributions met here refer to the borders, which were set to the realization of communist policy - by national and local traditions, economic facts as well as the necessity to keep the social peace upright. The measure, in which validity social interests in political practice could provide, diverges however between the individual examined countries and areas of life. Thus the anthology loads on the one hand to a comparison of state-socialist societies under socialhistorical perspective, on the other hand for the discussion of the clearance within these systems in.
