Partner relationships are no static entities: they form, they are consolidated, and theyhave to survive crises – all under changing historical circumstances. This introductionaims to develop new perspectives on couple relationships as dynamic life con-stellations in East and West Germany after 1945. It examines the normative settingsand changes in love conventions to analyze how the ideal and everyday lives of singlesand unmarried and married couples evolved. The article historicizes the con-temporary diagnosis of a fundamental “structural break” in the 1970s under the signof “value change” and an individualization, pluralization, and liberalization of society,which resonates strongly in contemporary historical research.
