Stefan Heym (1913-2001) was an important catalyst for the collapse of the Berlin Wall, a writer-politician who from the very beginning of his long and often dangerous career saw himself as a fighter for a better society. The twelve essays in this volume explore his involvement with the major political issues of his age, as well as less well known aspects of his activities - his operations in US psychological warfare, for example, and the attempts by organs of GDR government to obstruct his critical publications. The emphasis is above all on his commitment to aspects of Socialism. The wide geographical range of the contributors (from six different countries) reflects the increasing interest in Heym throughout the world. Stefan Heym (1913-2001) hatte eine wichtige Vermittlerfunktion im Rahmen der deutschen Wiedervereinigung. Er war ein Dichter und Politiker, der sich w???hrend seines langen und oft gef???hrlichen Lebens als K???mpfer f???r eine bessere Gesellschaft sah. Die zw???lf Aufs???tze in diesem Band analysieren Heyms Engagement f???r die gro???en politischen Fragen seiner Zeit. Sie befassen sich auch mit weniger bekannten Aspekten von Heyms T???tigkeit - z.B. mit seinen Aktivit???ten in der amerikanischen psychologischen Kriegsf???hrung, und den Versuchen der DDR-Zensur, seine regimekritischen Ver???ffentlichungen zu unterbinden. Das Schwergewicht der Beitr???ge liegt auf Heyms Verpflichtung zum Sozialismus. Die geographische Bandbreite der Beitr???ge (aus sechs verschiedenen L???ndern) zeigt das weltweit zunehmende Interesse an Heym.
