Abstract

The Europe of the Cold War has disintegrated. Instead of two once homogeneous regions – "the East" and "the West" – there are now fragments, enclaves, and islands. Yet disintegration is a form of renewal, a time both of disillusionment and enlightenment. Thus writes Karl Schlögel in an excerpt from his book Marjampole, or Europe's return from the spirit of the cities, translated into English here for the first time.
