The chapter contributes to a wider understanding of how ‘author collectives’ located within the Institute of Marxism-Leninism in the former East Germany wrote history as a legitimating narrative. The specific example here is how the biography of the chairman of the German Communist Party (KPD), Ernst Thälmann, was re-written to provide a model example of how the ‘socialist’ Germany was the heir to the anti-war and anti-imperialist traditions of the now divided nation. It also uses the files of the Institute of Marxism-Leninism to show how – like the debates over the nature of the November Revolution of 1918 – there remained tensions between Communists of differing political socialisations during the 1950s, thereby qualifying the seeming monolithic nature of regime’s political elite.
