Double-weighted statement
Death at the Berlin Wall (OUP, 2010) combines several different levels of analysis and narrative, from the microhistory of the life stories of particular victims of the Berlin Wall to the macro narratives of the division of Berlin, the public relations battles between the two Germanys, and the broader story of the final decades of the Cold War in Europe. It is based on very extensive research that took two years to complete, including far-ranging work in the secondary literature and published primary materials, mostly in German, and painstaking archival research in eleven German archives from throughout the Federal Republic.
