This study represents the first scientific study of the kidnappings of West Germans and West Berliners by the East German Stasi authorities.

This study represents the first scientific study of the kidnappings of West Germans and West Berliners by the East German Stasi authorities. It also analyzes the methods and function of this practice. To this very day it is little known that the East German Stasi authorities abducted some 400 people from West Berlin and West Germany in the 1950s and 1960s. Many returned home only after months, sometimes years, and some disappeared without a trace. The methods of the Stasi ranged from perfidious deceptions to street attacks. This study employs the extensive archival materials to illuminate this relatively unknown chapter in the relations between the two German states. It thus contributes to research on the history of political violence and its perpetrators.

Rezensionen

Perlentaucher-Notiz zur F.A.Z.-Rezension

Nach dieser Lektüre hat Hanns Jürgen Küsters keinen Zweifel mehr über die Menschenverachtung der SED-Diktatur. Susanne Muhles Studie scheint ihm schon wegen dieser Einsicht wichtig. Beweise für Mordszenarien gegen vermeintliche Widersacher bietet ihm Muhle zuhauf. Was die Autorin anhand von MfS-Akten und Prozessmaterial aus den 50er Jahren rekonstruiert, offenbart dem Rezensenten Planung, Tathergänge und Ermittlungen in 50 Fällen, Rekrutierungsmuster, Täter und Motive.
