About the Book

Walther Ulbricht pragte die deutsche und europaische Geschichte im 20. Jahrhundert wie nur wenige andere. Der erste Band von Ilko-Sascha Kowalczuks monumentaler Biographie ist auf ein fulminantes offentliches Echo gestoßen. Nun folgt der zweite Band, der zeigt, wie der deutsche Kommunist zum kommunistischen Diktator wurde. Als er 1945 aus der sowjetischen Emigration nach Deutschland zuruckkam, war Ulbricht bereits der fur Moskau wichtigste Funktionar der deutschen Kommunisten. Er betrieb unter Anleitung Stalins die Zwangsvereinigung von KPD und SPD zur SED und grundete die DDR. Er schlug den Volksaufstand vom 17. Juni 1953 nieder und ließ die Mauer bauen, die fur immer mit seinem Namen verbunden bleiben wird. Ilko-Sascha Kowalczuk hat dieses exemplarische Leben im Zeitalter der Extreme so grundlich erforscht wie noch keiner vor ihm. Seine beeindruckende Studie wird auf lange Zeit ein Standardwerk zur Geschichte der DDR, des deutschen Kommunismus und des 20 . Jahrhunderts. Ab Fruhling 1945 konnte Walter Ulbricht seinen langgehegten Traum ein kommunistisches Deutschland zu schaffen. Als Stalins wichtigster Mann in der sowjetisch besetzten Zone wurde er zum eigentlichen Staatsgrunder der DDR, der allerdings erst 1960 auch formell zum obersten Funktionar aufstieg. Immer wieder konnte er seine Macht behaupten, so beim Aufstand vom 17. Juni 1953 , der gegen seine Herrschaft gerichtet war. Als sie 1960/61 erneut in Gefahr geriet, errichtete er die Mauer. Anschließend erfand sich Ulbricht neu und versuchte als «Landesvater» die DDR im begrenzten Rahmen zu verandern. Er scheiterte an seinen konservativen Gegenspielern in der SED-Spitze. Der Sturz Ulbrichts 1970/71 war allerdings nicht nur dieser machtigen, von Moskau unterstutzten Gruppe geschuldet – denn Ulbricht war inzwischen krank und alt. Kowalczuks Biographie zeichnet nicht nur all diese politischen Entwicklungen prazise und quellennah nach, sie zeigt auch, wie Ulbricht abseits des Protokolls lebte, wer die wichtigsten Menschen in seinem Umfeld waren und warum die Geschichte der DDR und des Kommunismus ohne Kenntnis der Biographie Ulbrichts nicht zu verstehen ist.
