Abstract:
Fifty years ago on 13 August 1961, the East Germans sealed the east-westborder in Berlin, beginning to build what would become known as theBerlin Wall. Located 110 miles/177 kilometers from the border with WestGermany and deep inside of East Germany, West Berlin had remained the“last loophole” for East Germans to escape from the communist GermanDemocratic Republic (GDR) to the western Federal Republic of Germany(FRG, West Germany). West Berlin was an island of capitalism and democracywithin the GDR, and it enticed increasing numbers of dissatisfied EastGermans to flee to the West. This was particularly the case after the borderbetween the GDR and FRG was closed in 1952, leaving Berlin as the onlyplace in Germany where people could move freely between east and west.By the summer of 1961, over 1,000 East Germans were fleeing westwardsevery day, threatening to bring down the GDR. To put a stop to this, EastGermany’s leaders, with backing from their Soviet ally, slammed shut this“escape hatch.”

Abstract:
Germany was the place where the cold war between the United States and the Soviet Union took place, planning to establish an ideological domination over the world. After the end of the Second World War, although the city of Berlin remained within the borders of East Germany, as per an agreement between the Soviets and the Western bloc countries. divided. In order to prevent their escape to East and West Germany, the German administration began to build a wall around East Berlin on August 13, 1961, closing all passages to the western part, telling its citizens that they had a freer and more prosperous life. Hundreds of people lost their lives trying to escape to West Berlin by crossing the Berlin Wall until it collapsed on November 9, 1989. The walls of the public space create a political language and a space used against the system. The aim of this study was investigated in the context of the division of Germany, represented by the wreckage of the Berlin Wall, on a social and political plane. The resistance and political discourse function of graffiti in public spaces is examined through the example of the Berlin Wall. Artistic traces with a predominant protest aspect were investigated through literature review and visual concepts. Keywords: Public art, Berlin Wall, War, Graffiti, Politics, Street Art

Abstract:
If you want to understand West Berlin's history and present political reality, take the train from Hanover or Hamburg. The border crossing from West to East Germany gives the first clue. Barbed wire and high fences line the track; police line the station platform. The few East German civilians who are waiting for their own trains seem to look right through you as though you were invisible—a ghost train heading for Berlin.

Abstract:
Within weeks and months of the fall of the Berlin Wall in November 1989, numerous busts and portraits of school namesakes disappeared from the foyers, hallways, and “tradition rooms” (Traditionszimmer) of East Berlin schools and were relegated to trash bins. In 1990 municipal authorities formalized this spontaneous purge of school identities by eliminating the names of all schools in eastern Berlin. Over the course of the 1990s administrators, teachers, and students in the newly restructured schools began to discuss a wide range of new school identities.

Abstract:
This study deals with the history of Berlin during the Cold War from 1945 to the late 1960s. After World War II, Germany was divided into four regions and governed by the Allied Powers. Shortly after, with the onset of the Cold War, Germany was divided into East and West. Berlin, the capital, was also destined for the same fate. The western part of the city was placed in a special situation as a Western area located in the middle of East Germany. Throughout the 1950s and 1960s, the United States and the Soviet Union, as well as West and East Germany, frequently clashed over West Berlin. The city was regarded as a bastion of Western liberalism and a representative location symbolizing the Cold War. Above all, the image of an “Island of Freedom” was imprinted. This study focuses on the spatial specificity created in West Berlin during the Cold War. Specifically, the influence that space had on the residents and result it produced is examined. To this end, the period was divided into four phases, focusing on the keywords “correction, exhibition, tension, and reorientation,” and the formation and change of the space and the people who lived in the city investigated. Right after the war, Berlin was considered the heart of Nazi Germany and became a place of correction where intensive de-Naziization and re-education of citizens took place. However, with the onset of the Cold War in 1947/1948, the situation changed. A favorable mood toward the West was rooted in West Berlin citizens who experienced the First Berlin Crisis (the Berlin Blockade). Afterwards, the city, which was heavily reliant on the support of the US and West Germany, took on the function of exhibiting the superiority of the liberal system by competing with the communist system. As the Second Berlin Crisis began in 1958; West Berlin citizens felt the fear of war and doubts about the city's survival. The heightened tension caused by the construction of the Berlin Wall brought about changes in citizens’ consciousness. It led to the public's expression of anxiety. On the one hand, there were those who relied more on the US. On the other, those seeking change appeared. In particular, the younger generation sought a new path through resistance and deviation, breaking away from the existing Cold War thinking. This was expressed as conflicts within the city in the late 1960s. Since then, the city has been transformed into a space that exhibits more international and open character and diversity.

Abstract:
The significance of the research come from the truth that Berlin formed one of the important hotbeds of controversy in the clash between the Soviet Union and the Western allies in the context of the Cold War. As a result, the Quadruple administration of the city that has been approved in 1944 has scattered. This is the matter that drive it to enter in the tunnel of its first crisis for the period (1998-1999) and the subsequent division of Germany and the emergence of the two Germans in 1949, so both countries claimed the ownership of Berlin to it. The Federal Republic of Germany specified in Article 23 of its Constitution issued in 1949, that the city is part of the Federal Republic of Germany, while Article Two of the Constitution of the German Democratic Republic issued in 1949 set Berlin as its capital. Therefore, Berlin was divided as a result into two sectors, eastern under the administration of the German Democratic Republic, which took East Berlin as its capital, and a western sector under the administration of the Allied powers, which were not willing to integrate Berlin into the Federal Republic of Germany as an original state. However, it did not object that West Berlin being linked administratively and financially, as well as the application of the legislation of the Federal Republic of Germany after the approval of the city's parliament. The aims of the research are represent to identify the aims of the Allied powers behind the isolation of Berlin from Germany and the nature of the relationship that links Berlin with the Federal Republic of Germany. As for the problematic, it stemmed from the nature of the controversy surrounding the legality of the measurements taken by the Federal Republic of Germany in applying its legislation and laws to the western part of Berlin and the political, economic and social effects that they had. The research had divided into an introduction, four pivots and a number of conclusions. The first pivot concerns with the basic legal position of Berlin, the second pivot included the representation of Berlin in the federal government, and the third topic sheds light on the application of legislation and treaties held by the Federal Republic of Germany to Berlin, and the fourth pivots concluded with administrative and financial relations between the Federal Republic of Germany and Berlin.

Abstract:
Abstract In 1989, the Berlin Wall fell, marking the breakdown of the East-West demarcation and the reunification of the German Democratic Republic (gdr) and Federal Republic of Germany (frg). Consequently, thousands of predominantly Northern Vietnamese contract workers, who came to East Berlin under the bilateral agreement between the gdr and the Socialist Republic of Vietnam (srv), stayed in the reunified Germany alongside thousands of Vietnamese thuyền nhân from South Vietnam, who were settled in West Berlin by the frg. Therefore, Berlin became the host of two Vietnamese communities. To this day, significant tension exists between the two Vietnamese communities in Berlin due to the geographical and ideological divisions linked to the deterritorialisation and consequently reterritorialisation of the imagined homeland and host-land within the diaspora. This tension is further exacerbated by the socioeconomic segregation in the Vietnamese diaspora due to the differences in settlement policies and reception by the host land. This article focuses on the migration paths, policies, and subsequent development of the Vietnamese diaspora in Berlin. Based on ethnographic fieldwork conducted in Berlin from 2016 to 2018, I argue that the differences in policies before and after reunification regarding two different groups of Vietnamese migrants ultimately shape the experiences and reinforce the pre-existing cleavages between them.

Abstract:
The division of Germany after the war led to the former Preussischer Staatsbibliothek (PSB) being split between the Deutsche Staatsbibliothek (DSB) in East Berlin and the Staatsbibliothek Preussischer Kulturbesitz (SBPK) in West Berlin. Following the country's unification, the collections are being reunified in one institution, the Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin, which will be the biggest library in Germany. Both buildings will continue to be used, since neither is large enough to hold the entire collection, both are architecturally significant, and a new building is out of the question. Reintegrating the post-war collections is much less of a problem than the treatment of post-war acquisitions of the two libraries. Large numbers of books (many of them lacking in other major Germany libraries) are duplicated, and it is difficult to achieve a sensible allocation of materials between the buildings. It has been decided to use the older building (DSB) for holdings up to 1955, for consultation only, while the other building (SBPK), which dates from 1978, will house material from 1956 and serve as a lending library. The catalogue sittuation is equally complex. The DSB had a complete record of the pre-war collection of printed books, but the major part of the collection was either in West Berlin or lost; on the other hand, in the west, where 1.7m. volumes of PSB's holdings were concentrated, the SBPK had to start without any catalogue at all. The aim is now to carry out a complete retrospective conversion of all the varied existing catalogues within the next seven years. To add to these complications, the entire older building is being restored to acceptable standards and the former central reading room is being reconstructed; during the lengthy process a storage building is having to be rented. The greatest challenge of all, however, is the integration of staff.

Abstract:
Between the end of the Cold War in 1989 and the sixtieth anniversary of the end of World War II more than fifteen years later, Germany witnessed not only a proliferation of events and experiences to be remembered but also of traditions of memory. Before the fall of the wall, remembrance of the past in West Germany meant, above all, commemoration of the Nazi past and the memory of the Holocaust. Germany's unification had a significant impact on cultural memory not only because the fall of the wall itself was an event of memorable significance but also because it gave new impulses to debates about the politics of memory.

Abstract:
After many years of being labeled as the “Sick man of Europe”,Germany has established itself as a real economic power in Europe in the last years. Today the country is the largest market in Europe with the highest GDP and it stands out for its stable macroeconomic standpoint, its low rate of unemployment and its high volumes of export, which mainly rely on the strength of its innovative industry. However, on the 30th anniversary of the Berlin Wall fall, we investigate if these positive economic results have been achieved by the whole country or if the economic gap between the East and West still dominates and affect regional imbalances within Germany. Scholars agree that, although the undeniable economic progress made in Eastern Germany, the establishment of equal living conditions throughout the federal territory – proclaimed after the collapse of Berlin Wall – has not been reached. Several challenges need still to be faced by East Germany: the fragmented corporate structures and the lack of large companies, the high dependence on transfer from Federal Government, and the weakness of its labor market characterized by lower wages and higher unemployment in comparison with the West. Nevertheless, recent research suggest that different economic development does not always follow the previous inner-German border and that, regional variances emerge also between the south and the north or between the cities and the country.

Abstract:
This thesis examines how the press of the erstwhile German Democratic Republic represented Iran in the years from 1949 – the year of the GDR’s formation – until 1989, the last complete year before its demise on 3 October 1990. The study focuses on key events in Iranian history such as the overthrow of the Mossadegh government in 1953, the White Revolution, the Islamic Revolution of 1979, and the Iran-Iraq war. It will be shown that although news and articles were based on selected facts, they still presented a picture of Iran that was at best distorted, the distortions and misrepresentations amounting to what could be described as 'factual fiction'. Furthermore, clear evidence will be provided that economical and political relations with Iran were a primary concern of the GDR’s leadership, and thus also of the GDR’s press and have therefore dominated the reporting on Iran. Whatever ideological concerns there may have been, they were hardly ever allowed to get in the way of amicable relations with the Shah or later with the Islamic Republic. Only in periods where the two countries enjoyed less amicable or poor relations, was the press free to critically report events in Iran and to openly support the cause of the SED’s communist Iranian sister party, the Tudeh. Despite East Germany’s diametric ideological environment and despite the fundamentally different role that the GDR’s political system had assigned to the press and to journalism, East Germany’s press was as reliant on the input of the global news agencies as any Western media. The at times almost complete reliance on Western news agencies as sources for news on Iran challenged more than just the hermeneutic hegemony the SED and the GDR’s press wanted to establish. After all, which news and information were made available by the news agencies to the media in both East and West was primarily determined by the business interests of said agencies. The study makes a contribution to three fields: Modern Iranian history, (East-) German history and media studies. The most valid findings were certainly made in the latter.

Abstract:
Architecture has been used to demonstrate political change in many instances throughout history. This research paper explores tendencies in German architecture after West and East Germany unified in 1990 after more than 40 years under separate political systems, economic conditions and architectural development. The main narrative of the research traces the process of defining new identities after the collapse of a strong physical border and a shift in political and economic structure. Practically overnight an area of more than 40,000 square miles was added to West Germany, and the land and inhabitants of the former GDR joined a lifestyle that seemed to have been driven by consumption and opportunity. Over the next few decades, a building boom unfolded in the area that was formerly East Germany and in the city of Berlin. Architecture after 1990, the year of the German re-unification, also modeled a set of values aiming at progress, unity and technical ability. It retained a preference for glass curtain walls and stone ve-neers, balancing optimism for a great future with nostalgia for 19th century’s past. In the former West Germany, the architectural evolution was little impacted, but the former East Germany underwent a comprehensive renewal, es-pecially in the realm of infrastructure, civic, commercial and transportation buildings. This paper compares three specific urban interventions, the Berlin Potsdamer Platz development, Leipzig Hauptbahnhof (Leipzig main train station), and Coutbus Technical University Library, that aimed at identifying and articulating shared formal principles that signify a united country. After 1990, Western architects seized the opportunity and secured numerous commissions along a new type of frontier, and their urban and architectural interventions had the effect of creating and supporting a new German identity.
