5. Decolonising Europe? The colonial boomerang

Author

Abstract

The hidden secret at the cote of Michael Haneke's remarkable film of that name is Georges Laurent's denunciation of a young Algerian boy who found refuge on his relatives' farm after his own parents had perished in the infamous 1961 Paris massacre. In a bizarre return of the repressed, the memory of this betrayal invades and destroys his affluent bourgeois existence forty years later. In this article, I attempt to link this return to the 'colonial boomerang' of the suburban revolts of 2005 (and 2007) and the ''official' occlusion of past crimes against humanity most clearly shown in the case of Maurice Papon, in which the betrayal of France's Jews and the massacre of Algerian demonstrators merge on the grounds of the Vel d'Hiv.

Abstract

For the last few years, I have been planning to write a book called Unwrapped Past and Empty Present: GDR Culture in Retrospect. The post-unification process has not been easy, and the other day I even came across a statement in the press that 'other postcommunist countries did not seem to have faced the same difficulties as the former GDR'. Although this is a highly questionable comment, ignoring the plight of large sections of the population under 'successful' postcommunist governments and the far higher living standards of the GDR population, despite de-industrialisation and massive unemployment, it contains a grain of truth. The more I read about and discuss the East German situation before and after 1989, the more I become convinced that there were vital differences, not only in Soviet policy towards the GDR and other Warsaw Pact states, but perhaps more importantly, in the attitudes of the East German party, the intellectuals and the population at large to the idea of 'nation', to the Soviet Union and even to 'socialism as it existed in reality'. After a stint in Potsdam cramming post-1989 memoirs, I should like to address these issues in a first try at a possible introduction to my planned book.

Author

Milfull, John

Subjects
*POLITICAL change, *COMMUNIST parties, SOVIET Union politics & government, WEST German politics & government
Abstract

The article cites a study that seeks to address the following misapprehensions: 1) that Soviet Union statesman Mikhail Gorbachev's ascent to power and advocacy of radical change was some kind of aberration, and had no basis in the communist party and the people; and, 2) that the continued participation of members of the old elite in the new managing class was the result of an evil conspiracy, and not, as was the case in post-war West Germany, an inevitable consequence of demography and broad party membership.
