註釋

In the 1940s, Wehner broke with communism and went to the FRG, where he joined the Social Democratic Party (SPD). He ascended to the top leadership of the party in the 1950s, becoming one of the most powerful men in West German politics in the years after Konrad Adenauer's retirement in 1963. In the 1970s, Wehner succeeded in holding the SPD together as the country's ruling party, but by the early 1980s his life's work collapsed as the SPD was reduced to the level of an opposition party. By the time of his death in 1990, Wehner had become a symbol of the twists and turns, the highs and lows of a half century of not only German but also Soviet and East European history.
