Abstract
They bury the past more thoroughly in the former Communist Bloc. Few towns or streets still bear the name of Stalin, and statues of Lenin have been removed one by one. Berliners no longer live in streets named after leaders of the German Democratic Republic, and not even the prophets of the revolution have been spared. Trains no longer stop at Marx—Engels Strasse, but at Heckescher Market.
