More about the book
Exploring the intersection of state control and individual interpretation, this book delves into the role of comics in East Germany as tools for promoting socialist ideology among youth. While the regime aimed to shape a "socialist personality," young readers often infused these comics with their own meanings and desires. By examining both the state's intentions and the readers' responses, it reveals the complexities of cultural expression under a repressive regime, highlighting how perceived freedoms can paradoxically constrain the very goals they seek to achieve.
