| Zusammenfassung: | Discourses and practices of relationship (and dating) among unmarried and married couples changed fundamentally in East and West Germany after 1945. As the bourgeois nuclear family model eroded, heterogeneous relationship forms began to emerge in the 1970s and 1980s. But how revolutionary was this change? Analyzing cohabitation practices in East and West Germany, this article argues that the pluralization and liberalization of partner relationships had clear limits. These will be identified by reviewing the socio-economic conditions and the political and cultural norms that shaped the relationships of couples and singles. This article thus aims to shed new light on the history of relationships and shifts in intimate lives in Germany. |
