Berichte der Magdeburger Kirchenleitung zu den Tagungen der Provinzialsynode 19461989

The reports of the Protestant Church-governing body in Magdeburg are an outstanding source for research in GDR history. They meant orientation to the congregations by publicly criticizing the East German government, and in particular, its hostility towards the Church.
The annual reports by the church leadership to the synod of the Evangelical Church in the church province of Saxony regularly commented on current socio-political issues in the SBZ/GDR. The state apparatus of the GDR has always critically evaluated these reports, in which positions were taken responsibly and government measures repeatedly contradicted, and tried to influence the design of the text and the synodal debate. For the first time, the socio-politically relevant sections of the church leadership reports of an East German regional church from the years 1946 to 1989 are published in full. They show the position of the church in the atheistic state and thus open up a piece of GDR history in a general overview.
