Viac o knihe

The book offers a unique perspective on Berlin's tumultuous twentieth-century history by focusing on its water and energy infrastructures. Timothy Moss explores how these systems reflect and influence municipal, national, and international politics through various regimes, from democratic to fascist to socialist. He traces the evolution of these infrastructures from the establishment of Greater Berlin in 1920 to the remunicipalization of services in 2020, highlighting the interplay between stability and change while revealing the often-overlooked choices of utility managers and officials.
