Abstract

The article compares the self-representations in autobiographies of people from the Confederate States of America in the United States after its defeat to those of people from the German Democratic Republic of former East Germany after the unification of Germany. The author describes the former East Germany as defeated similarly to the American Southern Secessionists and also applies the description of secession to the separation of East Germany from the rest of Germany. Argued similarities between the people, politics, and ideologies of the Confederate States and of East Germany are then presented by the author.
