"The individual chapters are organised into four sections dealing with workers, ethnic and linguistic minorities, youth and women. In order to enhance the comparative character of this volume, the four chapters contained in each section consider the position of these social groups in, respectively, West Germany, East Germany, Austria and either Czechoslovakia or Hungary."
