Long-term care in the United States has taken the nursing home as its benchmark, but the monetary, social, and psychological costs of nursing home care are all too high. This book challenges the current dominance of nursing homes as the principal institution of long-term care.

In Retrospect and Review an international team of scholars explore East German literature, and the circumstances of its production, in the last phase of the German Democratic Republic’s existence. The provocative claim of the novelist, playwright and essayist Christoph Hein, ’Ich nehme außerdem fÜr mich in Anspruch [...] elfmal das Ende der DDR beschrieben zu haben,’ serves as the starting-point for the twenty-three contributors to the volume, who consider the many and varied ways in which Hein and his fellow writers signalled and diagnosed the demise of the GDR.
